Programmable Humidity Controller Circuit
The simple programmable humidity sensor circuit I have explained in this article can be used for controlling or maintaining a suitable level of humidity inside a close premise. The circuit could be used in poultry farms or similar areas where humidity level becomes crucial for keeping the animals healthy. The idea was requested by Mr. […]
Simple Automatic Plant Watering Circuit for Monitoring Soil Moisture
This automatic plant watering circuit can be used for automatically sensing soil humidity and triggering a water pump when the ground gets parched below a predetermined level (adjustable). Circuit Operation The circuit is rather straightforward and uses a single IC 555 as the main active component.Referring to the automatic plant irrigation circuit shown below we […]
Safety Buoy Switch Circuit for Human Powered Submarine
In this post I have explained a safety mechanism circuit which can be used in human powered submarines for safeguarding the diver during emergency situations. The idea was requested by Mr. Marielle. Technical Specifications For a (voluntary) project of the TU Delft in the Netherlands, we are building a human powered submarine. In this submarine we need a […]
Control Two Submersible Pumps Alternately
In this post I have explained a simple water level controller circuit applicable for automatic toggling of two submersible water pumps alternately in response to a predetermined water level switching. The entire circuit is built using just a single IC and a few other passive parts. The idea was requested by one of the interested members of […]
5 Useful Motor Dry Run Protector Circuits Explained
The 5 simple dry run protector circuits presented here shows simple methods by which insufficient water conditions inside an underground tank can be sensed without introducing probes inside the underground tank, and thus preventing any possibility of motor dry running. The circuit also incorporates an overhead water overflow control feature. The idea was requested by […]
