Which component regulates the automatic operation and sequencing of a filtration system?

• A. Automatic Drains
• B. Filter Controls
• C. Enclosures
• D. Wire

Answer: (B)

Filter controls regulate the automatic operation and sequencing of a filtration system. They manage when the system runs, initiate backwashing, and sequence valve changes based on sensors and timers, ensuring the process happens in the correct order and at the right times. Automatic drains perform drainage tasks but don’t coordinate the overall sequence. Enclosures merely house the equipment, and wiring carries signals rather than controlling actions. So the component that handles the automatic operation and sequencing is the filter controls.
