Forum Post: Re: WaterCAD FCV Control

Mark,

Thanks again for your advice.

After removing the junction with negative flow and changing the initial setting of FCV to closed, FCV started to open and closed at longer cycle (> 24 hurs), instead of open and close every several hours.  First, I thought FCV started to close at right time between midnight and 6 am most of the time. However, when I adjusted other settings such as HSP pump controls and FCV flow rate, FCV does not close at mid night any more.

By trying different sets of controls, I found the followings:

1. FCV is controled by two control settings (The Clock Time does not seem to have any effect):

    - IF Clock Time  > 6:00 AM  And Clock Time  < 11:59 PM  And R-2MG Hydraulic Grade < 829.00 ft

      THEN FCV-4 FCV Setting = 2,500 gpm

    - IF R-2MG Hydraulic Grade >= 832.99 ft THEN FCV-4 FCV Status = Closed

2. The following control to close FCV does not seem to have any effect.

   - IF Clock Time  >= 11:59 PM  And Clock Time  <= 6:00 AM  THEN FCV-4 FCV Status = Closed

3. FCV pattern which was set according to your last advice also does not seem to have any effect.

With your advice, I now can close FCV according to its elevation, but not according to time.

I'd appreciate your further guidance on how to close the FCV according to time.

Thanks.

Yoko
