Abstract
A multiple pump, multiple tank fluid control system incorporates a programmable processor which communicates with an operator input/output control panel which can be switched between each member of the plurality of tanks. Pump on and off levels for a selected tank can be readily set electronically using control switches on the control panel. On and off levels for different pumps can be nested readily by the operator to provide multiple pump capacity as deemed desirable by the operator.
