CS Enthusiasts, With a view towards prolonged operation of a generator, intended for increasingly concentrated CS, I'm hoping someone here can help give ideas on the best way to put together an automated switching device. The generator I'm using can give an additional 50 ppm per hour, or so, and I'd like to let it run for 20 to 30 hours at a time. The CS produced in this way is for saturating ceramic water purifiers. Up to now I've never made more than about 400 ppm at a time, since I do manual switching every 2 minutes. Four to six hours of manual switching is about all I can do without going a little nuts, so I need an automated device.
Surely there must be a way of using a computer, with the task scheduling program. But what additional software would be needed, and how would this coordinate with the switch, presumably a DPDT switch? On the face of it I'd think it's a simple matter to make a switch that operates from a computer. Or is there some other methodology I'm missing? I've looked around for various kinds of timers that could do the job, but have come up with nothing. Once we have overcome this hurdle everything appears to be in place for localized production of concentrated CS. My intention is to publish all information to the web at some point. In the meantime there's more information on the type of generator we're using at the link: http://www.purifier.com.np/CS.html Can somebody help with the necessary information?
