Trying to figure out a control circuit and make sure I am correct in my head lol. Would appreciate any insight or correction. Say I have a pump motor draining a tank when it gets full. Just a small 480v low hp motor. Motor controller is hand,off,auto style with its own control transformer which makes a 120volt control circuit. And to control the 120volt coil is going to be a low and high level switch. Also in the controller will be a 120volt relay for the high level switch and one for the low. The low level switch will activate the relay as a stop button. And the high level switch activate the relays as a start button , if that can make senses. If I am wiring both level switch devices on normally open . The low level should always remained in the close position until dumped below it and once that is done should go back to open and in doing so opening the 120volt control Circuit Deenergizing the motor. And when fluid is back up again to the low it will close Essentially getting power up into the point of the stop button, once to the high level it will close the high level relay closing the entire 120vcontrol circuit energizing the motor. Also forgot to mention both level switches and both relays Will be wired in the n/o position.
