    (Need Real-World RC values) Analog Automated Pump Controller for Utility company Water supply

    Hello Everyone, I am not an electronics guy but building a simple project to detect water arrival in utility supply line, switch on the pump if tank isn't full, stop when either tank gets filled or water supply is stopped. Please ask any clarifying questions for details I have missed. I need to...

    Power switches to replace Mechanical Relay in the HV pulse tester setup

    I have a surge tester setup that uses a high-voltage power supply (up to 1000 V) to charge a non-polarized capacitor bank using SW1 to energize Relay 1 in Image 1. The bank discharges into a waveshape network (inductors + resistors) through a high-power relay, triggered by a push-button. Each...

    Device (triggered by a switch) remotely activates & deactivates a light?

    Hi all, hi Ya’akov. My previous (relay mute) project is running nicely for 4 months now. Time for a new BMW project. This time, I want to add extra LED lights in the trunk. I thought there could be an easier way, instead of tapping into the trunk lighting switch and pulling wires into the...

    Can I directly do this type of switching in my inverter circuit?

    So our project is based upon using a solar panel as the main source, but in case it fails, we need the circuit to automatically switch to the government supply which we'll be converting into 12V DC. Can this be achieved directly and simply by a relay circuit like the one in the image? Or we need...

    Why my relay module which is controlled by a RC receiver is turning on and off rapidly?

    I am trying to make a power wheel car remote controlled. My setup is: I am using a 4 channel relay module to control the car's motor in forward reverse motion and the relay is getting the signal from a RC receiver. I have a 12V lead battery. The relay board and the receiver board needs 5v power...

    My water pump insta starts i cant turn it off with my button

    In my app i can see thst my button is toggling when im pressing that should stop the water pump but its not stopping it (I am using arduino uno just for the 5v to power the railway that is connected the vin pin and the vcc for relay)

    Seeking Expert Advice: Using Relays with Arduino to Control 3-Phase 22kW Water Pump Motor

    Hello Everyone, I'm currently working on a project where I aim to remotely control a 3-phase 22kW water pump motor using an Arduino microcontroller. To achieve this, I'm considering using relays as ON/OFF switches between the Arduino and a contactor that will ultimately control the motor...

    Getting into electrics.. I have no clue why this 2 channel relay receiver is not working the way I wired it.

    I know its a bit janky but Ive just needed to make this door opener device remote control and for some reason, I cannot get this receiver to power anything even when both channels are on. Can someone help me?

    Searching for working schematic of relay

    Hi every one. I'm searching for the schematic of the relay РВЭ3А-Т ЯЛ4.544.001-47. I found it on google and I don't understand what it is (A, B, 5, 6, 7 lead). Can you explain how does it work. Thank you very much.

    1994 oven control board died, but i need to bake banana bread :/

    Hello, recently my 1994 range's oven control board died and rather than replace the entire range, I figure I would find a way to power the oven's bake element by designing/building a (simple?) circuit. I have verified that the "bake" element in the oven works (drawing 13 amps at 250v AC) and the...

    How to make my delay relay circuit latch?

    I have bought this Delay Relay module off of amazon. I am using it to make a circuit that will act as a latching relay with a delay for a 12V power source. The circuit should work as follows: There is a switch to activate the relay. When activated, the relay will remain on until the 12V power...

    Controlling relay module by using snap switches, no R Pi's or Arduinos

    I have a mechanical system I'm building and I want to use snap switches to control the order of operations. The order will be something like this. 1. Run 1 revolution of the electric motor, then stop motor. 2. Activate solenoid. 3. Activate second electric motor for 1 revolution. 4. Begin...

    Wireless Control Idea Help (parts)

    I need help with an idea i had. I’m trying to use RF to control a 24v relay. The receiver would need to turn on and off a normally open 24v rated relay. The transmitter would need to get its signal to turn on or off the receiver from a normally open contact wired to the receiver. Basically when...
