4. a) A pump is to be used to fill two storage tanks. The pump is manually started by the operator from a
START/STOP station. When the first tank is full, the control logic must be able to automatically
stop flow to the first tank and direct flow to the second tank through the use of sensors and electric
solenoid valves. When the second tank is full, the pump must stop automatically. Indicators are used
to signal when each tank is full.
ii) Prepare a typical PLC program for the automatic control of the process. (10M)
