Krypto's Ultimate Controler



disclaimer
I didn't invent it,, just making it available to evryone who wants an easy to use Hydroponic system at a fraction of the cost of it's original counterpart. Also any electrical parts in this tutorial are for use with U.S electrical current.
This thread is to give you an idea of what is needed, where to get it, and how to use it.
I'll clean it up or rewrite with better pics at a more convenient time.

We'll begun with giving you an idea of what the controler housing looks like. You'll need something to house the eletrical components to keep you from getting fried in an unpleasant manner.

These are two different versions of the housing I've made. One from sheet metal, the other from an old plastic container.

Your gonna need ONE per control unit. It is very important that the correct timer be used. You may find a similar timer than this brand but it has to be: SPDT FIVE Terminal .

Diehl Timer.
You will not find a better price than this site.
Part Number: TA4079
Description: Time Clock, 24Hr, 120V, SPDT 5 Term

Float Switches were extrememly difficult to find until i came across this guy. Extremely reasonable price for this type of switch. You can find them elsewhere for @ $15 to $20 US

https://www.floatswitches.net/floatswitch.html







You need FOUR of the Float Switches per controler .

Two AC Outlets.
Whichever type you use for the electrical current in your area.
I found these at Home De Pot. Lowes does not have them .



Four 90's, show here are 1/2 inch.



At Least 10 1/2 inch straights . The number of straights needed depend on how many outlets to buckets are needed. I will be using four in this tutorial .



16 1/2 inch Grommet's.



Two 90 barbs.



8' cord.

Yeah keep it coming. (As Herb rattles the filing cabinet) Krypto's parts examples, for the most part, are used. I like that.
