Hi everyone,
Does anyone have suggestions what would be a good option
for reverse pulse control on my dust collectors?
I have 3 separate dust collectors that use (two each) air solenoid valves
to give the filters an alternating 100 millisecond (1/10 second) pulse
to remove the dust from the filters.
I have solid state switch relays (triac) to pulse the 120 volt AC
solenoid valves.
I already have this setup on my LinuxCNC Plasma cutter and have it
working with ClassicLadder in LinuxCNC.
It seems somewhat overkill to use a full LinuxCNC setup to control these
other three dust collectors.
Would a micro-controller like Arduino be a better solution?
I have no experience with Arduino.
What about a PLC?
Any input, or suggestions?
Thanks,
Earl
