In this post I have explained a simple method of automatically switching ON an inverter fan whenever the unit is operating in the charging mode or inverter mode, in order to ensure optimum cooling of the internal power devices. The idea was requested by Mr. Sudip Bepary. Circuit Objectives and Requirements I have just bought […]

Pressure Switch Water Pump Controller Circuit
A pressure switch is a device which can be used for detecting water pressure in a tank and operate a water pump motor when the pressure gets too low, or the water in the tank goes lower than a desired minimum level. In this post I have explained a water pressure controller circuit for maintaining […]
Touch Operated Code Lock Switch Circuit
This touch operated electronic door lock can be used for locking any entrance through a touch keypad. The lock’s touch feature is foolproof and impossible to crack since the touch function is required to be on 3 programmed pads together or simultaneously, otherwise the lock doesn’t respond. It is a lot convenient to open a […]
Making a Float Switch Circuit for a Corrosion-free Water Level Control
A float switch is a device which detects a fluid level (such as water) and activates a set of contacts which may be further integrated to a control circuit for restricting the fluid flow behavior. Why a Float Switch The advantage of a float switch is that it works without a direct contact with the […]
SPDT Relay Switch Circuit using Triac
An efficient solid state single pole double throw or SPDT switch can be built using triacs for replacing a mechanical SPDT. In this post I have explained a simple solid state triac SPDT relay circuit, using an optocoupler and a couple of triacs, which can be used as an effective replacement for mechanical relays. The […]
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 […]
