8.7.4 Special features and expansions
The block diagram shows how you can interconnect the
pump controls and the solenoid valve. The layout corre-
sponds with the circuit diagram. You also have the option to
integrate further functions for specific applications, which
can only be implemented in a conventional circuitry by add-

• Enabling the pump at specific times
• Indication of imminent or existing water shortage
• Reporting of system faults
