    Hello,

    I would like to implement the following use case and am still looking for the right hardware. I came across open sprinklers.

    Maybe you can tell me if that would work.

     

    I have a water source with a 230V submersible pump.

    I would like to serve two consumers/circuits from this source.

    Circuit 1 should receive water at different times during the day for a time to be determined. But only until a float switch (simple open/closed switch) responds.

    Circuit 2 should be able to be controlled manually using a switch and is independent of circuit 1.

     

    I imagined the whole thing with an OSPi board. I would like to connect the float switch as sensor 1. Sensor 2 would then be a switch for manual control.

    I would like to control the pump as master via relay. (Can you tell me what I use best? OSPi with 24VAC)

     

    Essentially the following switching processes are present:

    Circuit 1: According to schedule as long as float switch is free; If the float switch hits, do not open valve 1 and the master for the pump until the level drops again and then continue as normal in the schedule.

    Circuit 2: Valve and master open as long as a switch is activated. Regardless of circuit 1, the master must also open when the float switch is activated. In the best case, the schedule for circuit 1 is ignored as long as the switch is activated. Otherwise both valves might be open at the same time.

     

    Programming skills are available and there should be no problem writing code if necessary. I'm primarily concerned with the functions of the hardware.

    Danke.

    greeting

    Hello,

    ja, das geht und sie haben Glück, denn jetzt mit der OSPi Version 1.5 gibt es zwei Sensoreingänge – 1.44 und Vorgänger hatten nur einen.

    Sie brauchen ein Relais mit passender Leistung, ich kenne ja die Leistung der Tauchpumpe nicht, daher prüfen ob folgendes Relais passt:

    Finder 22.32.0.024.4540 Schütz 1 Schließer, 1 Öffner

    Ihr Schwimmerschalter funktioniert ja wie ein Regensensor, wenn es Regnet->Keine Bewässerung. Also wenn Sen1 und GND verbunden werden, keine Aktivierung der Tauchpumpe.

    Sie können für jeden Kreislauf einstellen ob dieser auf Sen1 reagieren soll.
