My Shark Tank Controller Build
Well I recently had my ATO stop working and I didn't have any indication other than the return pump start sucking air. Thats what kind of led me down this path. The main goal of my setup was that I wanted something that could do all the basic things I need, plus be able to send me a text message if something were to go wrong. Right now, its about 50% complete. The basics of it are working temperature control, auto top off, power head control, and text alerts.
The basic hardware consists of a Atmega 2560, a DS3231 RTC, ENC28J60 dev board, 8 - 120VAC relays, and 4x20 LCD. I realize my wiring is messy and I still need to mount the ethernet board and a cat5 bulkhead connection. All of that will be completed later. And now here are few a pictures of the existing 300 gal tank (to be upgraded in the spring). |
