Arduino automated PH, EC and Water-refill progam
Hi to all
interested self programmer who have a garden which needs to be controlled automatically, such as PH, EC and auto water refill.
Here's a short guide on where to begin, the part list and the code for arduino based language "C"
Warning HIGH VOLTAGE
Incorrect or improper use could result in:
- Serious injuries or death
- physical damage of the product
- creating dangerous hazard
- *** I take no responsibility for any of your actions!
So lets just jump into and begin with the part list:
1 x LCD 2*16 or higher if needed
1 x Box to put all the hardware together
1 x Arduino Mega (Uno is possible too but then there is not enough pins for the water level sensor)
1 x pack of jumper wires
2 x adapter (main supply for Arduino and water pump) for arduino i would suggest a 9V and for the water pump a 5v would do the job
1 x some spare electric wires
1 x 4 channel relais
1 x Tentacle shield from whitebox labs ( i find it a good solution as both ph and ec can be connected)
1 x ph probe and ec probe
1 x Waterlevel sensor
1 x pack of buttons
1 x Breadboard
Pictures provided are only for better understanding, different parts would work as well
to be continued........
Nice project @luckyhunky. Have you already estimated the costs of implementing this?
