Hello, new to AAC so hello everyone....
I did a search on my topic of interest and whilst there were a number of threads about ways to complete, one way I had in mind didn't seem to be covered. I did pick up a few things within those threads that I hope will help me give all necessary detail:
The potable water tank is to be used to water veg at an allotment so no chance of AC power, it will be 12v DC.
I need to refil this tank from a larger tank that collects rainwater or filled from mains. Is it possible to set up a circuit with two stainless steel float valves (example linked below), one at the higher level and one at the lower level. When the lower level indicator drops it switches on the pump and when the upper indicator rises it turns off the pump.
The way I see it is the indicators can both be in either orientation and I see some sort of logic but I cannot fathom the correct components that will enable:
The lower indicator, when it goes into one state, to start the pump but then has no impact when the same indicator changes state again as the water rises - and then upper indicator stops the pump when it changes state (as the tank is full) but again has no impact as the water level lowers. Any help would be much appreciated.
