Hi,
The manual for my air compressor says it should not run for more than 50% of an hour. I have been thinking of building a circuit to compute this variable so please bear with me. I imagine the circuit working something like this:
Detector -> Bandpass filter -> Microcontroller -> Review memory on PC
The compressor is quite loud so testing will take place on site. Is this more complicated than it seems? The only issues I can see is the compressor frequency is variable and audible interference from a nail gun which is very loud if in close proximity. Suggestions for the detector and filter stages are appreciated.
