Model ALT alternating relays are used to alternate between two loads.
The ALT is commonly used in duplex pumping applications to balance the
runtime of both pumps.
The Model ALT-S is used in single high level float applications. When the
float switch opens, the alternating relay changes state forcing the other
pump to run the next time the float closes.
The Model ALT-X has an internal cross-connected relay and is used in
applications where two high level floats are used. These floats are
commonly referred to as lead and lag floats. The lead float causes the relay
to change state each time it opens (identical to the float in the ALT-S
application). The cross-connected relay configuration allows one pump to run
anytime the lag switch is closed. This system configuration is used when
there is a chance that the tank inflow exceeds the pumping capacity of
either pump alone. When both the lead and lag floats are closed, both
pumps will run.
These relays are also available with a built-in switch that is used to
manually force one pump to run every time the float switch is closed. This
is helpful when one pump has been removed for repair or for test purposes.
All Model ALT relays have a built-in debounce feature that prevents the relay
from changing state if the switch or float contact bounces momentarily.
