Its very possible that you have a short in the wiring some where that is over drawing the relays. I would suggest adding an inline fuse the the circuit to help protect the relay. You could also check the current draw with a clamp on still multimeter.

I think the speaker is an excellent idea. Before your comment i was considering a horn that blows once the stop light is active. Does kleen rite sell such a speaker? I haven't come across it yet. And honestly i have only spent like 10k with all the mods i have made so far. Thats including the...

The arduino i feel is harder to program than a plc. Ladder logic is designed to make trouble shooting easy. And its really hard to say how long a arduino would last with all the vibration and such in your pump room

So i did this to my SS too i bought one from ebay 300 bucks i beleive. Plus the rtd card. I weep the gun longer the colder it gets outside. I dont blow the lines out because the water will freeze in the low point on the hose. But i do blow out my IBA instead of weeping it. Hasnt frozen yet!

Thankfully i added the cameras the week i bought the wash. When i go there tomorrow after work ill send a pic of the tower. I put the spray bar inside of it and drilled holes threw the cover. I also added some turbo nozels to it. They actually get the rockers clean

Thank you for the pictures. That totally clears things up. Im going to do this on the machine im working on installing now. So yes 3 months after I purchased the wash, A guy totally destroyed one of my rainmakers. The guy ignored the signs telling his truck was too long and left his hitch in...

Oh ok. See this why I made this post. That is a huge help thanks! I did tie those doors in with a banner radar senor so when a car pulls up the pay station it will automatically open the front door or if the radar fails they open when a wash is purchased. Im not sure how everyone else does it...

I didnt use the housing i bought the swivel mounts from banner

Ok so the eys are low to the ground and only detecting the tires? This wash was so old it doesnt have a back up light if the customer overshoots the treadle switch it would just say stop and eventually fault out. I changed it to say please drive forward instead of stop and everyone has seemed...

I think an a lava arc would be really cool and my be work looking into unless it blinds the drivers when they pull in. I need to find someone already running one and see what they have to say about it. The booster pump maybe the way to go. I actually have a general pump not a cat. It seems to...

I switched mine to the m12 pin style so they are easy to change now. QS30ARXQ QS30EXQ

Allen bradley is extremely common in industrial applications. They last forever and allen bradley has a great support system. Are you thinking about upgrading your plc?

Hahaha well thanks for the offer. I wrote the program all from scratch. That old direct logics plc was programmed via a cassette tap. I thought lava was only for tunnels? When do you apply it?

I would do a VFD but i would have to replace the 25hp motor its not at all inverter rated

I have 3 pumps currently. High pressure 1300 psi A very low pressure soap pump (60 psi) And a medium pressure spot free pump. (250 psi) What do you mean a virtual treadle? Like a photo eye? You may be right about the multistage pump i just wasnt sure what the best play was.

No i did not take any videos of before but i can always go and take one now of it running. Im a controls engineer. This kinda stuff is what i do for a living

I just had it done too on freelancer.com it was super cheap and easy. I had 250 submittals

Forgot the HMI.
