Hi,
I have an application where I need to control a solenoid valve. It takes a 24 V DC input and it's connected to a switch and a 120AC to 24VDC power. I want to add a controller or timer which I can program it such that when I can start the program / push on the switch, it will turn on for say 8 mins then turn off, and turn back on after 20 mins, then off, and on after say 2 hours and off. The duration / time should be easily changeable if needed. What are my options here? Can time switches do the job? or do i need a controller? A microcontroller? or a PLC type controller? and how do I hook them up ( what the circuit diagram looks like) and what other components do I need?
Thanks you for the advice.
