DESCRIPTION
The Model 2611 Alternating Controller is a
microprocessor based controller designed for use
where two loads are required to alternate to provide
equal run time on the loads. LED indicators show the
status of the unit’s three control switch inputs and 2 load
outputs. A lead select switch allows the loads to
alternate normally in the center position, or disable
automatic sequencing and lock in a 1-2 or 2-1
sequence.
When a Stop, Lead or Lag switch closes, the
corresponding LED on top of the unit will illuminate.
When the Stop switch and Lead switch closes, Load 1
or Load 2 will come on and the corresponding green
LED will illuminate. If fluid levels continue to rise and
the Lag switch closes, the 2nd load will energize.
Loads remain energized until the Stop switch opens or
a fault condition is detected. See Typical Pump Down
Application - SOSO Operation on page 3 for details.
FAULT DETECTION
If any control switches open or close out of order, the
faulty switch is bypassed by the fault detection logic.
STOP, LEAD and LAG switch inputs are reassigned to
maintain safe operation. Should a faulty or fouled
switch begin operating normally, the fault detection logic
will restore STOP, LEAD and LAG assignments to their
proper designation.

TYPICAL PUMP DOWN APPLICATION - SOSO Operation
Step 1
In this example, the three normally open
dry float switches are designated Stop,
Lead and Lag. All switches begin open
and Load 1 and Load 2 are deenergized. The lead select switch
begins in the center (alternate) position.
Step 2
Fluid levels begin rising. STOP switch
closes, red STOP LED lights indicating
switch closure. No loads are
energized.
Step 3
Fluid levels continue to rise, LEAD
switch closes and energizes 1st load.
Red LED lights indicating LEAD switch
closure and a green LOAD 1 or LOAD 2
LED lights indicating which load is
currently LEAD.
Step 4
Fluid levels continue to rise, LAG switch
closes, energizes 2nd load, and lights
red LAG switch LED and remaining
green LOAD LED.
Step 5
As fluid levels fall, LEAD and LAG
switches open, loads remain energized
until the STOP switch opens. Red
switch status LEDs turn off as
corresponding switches open.
Step 6
Fluid levels fall below the STOP switch,
de-energizing all loads and turning off
green load status LEDs. Control logic
alternates LEAD load, unless automatic
sequencing is disabled by the Lead
Select switch.
