- Refer to the circuit shown in Figure 16-11. Assume that the platform is located on the lower floor. When the UP push button is pressed, the platform rises. When the platform reaches the upper floor, however, the pump does not turn off but continues to run until the overload relay opens the overload contacts. Which of the following could cause this problem? a. The solenoid valve opened when limit switch LS1 opened. b. The UP push button is shorted. c. Limit switch LS1 did not open its contacts. d. Limit switch LS2 contacts did not reclose when the platform began to rise.arrow_forwardRefer to the circuit shown in Figure 16-11. Assume that the platform is located on the bottom floor. When the UP push button is pressed the pump motor does not start. Which of the following could not cause this problem? The contacts of limit switch LS1 are open. The contacts of limit switch LS2 are open. Motor starter coil M is open. The overload contact is open.arrow_forwardRefer to the circuit shown in Figure 15-6. The STOP button is shown to be an emergency STOP button. What does the symbol used for the STOP button actually represent?arrow_forward
- Refer to Figure 21–1 to answer the following questions. In what position must switch SW 123 be set to make connection between terminals 3 and 4?arrow_forwardTo answer the following questions refer to the circuit in Figure 416. The pressure switch is shown as: a. Normally open b. Normally closed c. Normally open held closed d. Normally closed held openarrow_forwardRefer to the circuit shown in Figure 310. When would the amber pilot light be turned on? a. When the manual/automatic switch is set in themanual position. b. When the float switch contacts are closed. c.

- Refer to the circuit shown in Figure 25–5. Assume that timer TR1 is set for a delay of 10 seconds and timer TR2 is set for a delay of 5 seconds. When the START button is pressed, the motor starts. After 10 seconds the S1 contacts open and the motor continues to accelerate, but never reaches full speed. After a delay of about 30 seconds, the motor trips out on overload. Which of the following could cause this problem? TR1 coil is open. S2 coil is open. S1 coil is open. R coil is open.arrow_forwardTo answer the following questions refer to the circuit in Figure 416. What is the purpose of the rotary switch connected after the pressure switch?arrow_forwardRefer to the circuit shown in Figure 7-10. If wire number 11 were disconnected at the normally open auxiliary M contact, how would the circuit operate? Figure 7-10 Numbers are placed beside all components.arrow_forward
- Refer to the circuit shown in Figure 108. In this circuit, the jog button has been connected incorrectly.
