These are three way pool valves that can have a motorized actuator attached to automate the operation of the valves.
Automated Diversion Valve installed on aquaponics system to control flow to indexing valves
Diversion valve for tower System diverting flow back and forth between two banks of towers
This is handy for automating the flow to an indexing valve or simply alternating flow between two different locations without the need to turn the pump on/off all the time. This extends the life of the pump and impellers.
| Three way diversion valve. $50.00 | 24 VAC motorized Actuator. $100.00 | picaxe based 10 minute timer for the actuator $150.00 |
|---|---|---|
| For Valve only | For Actuator Only | For ten minute timer only. The timer will take me a bit since I will be building it to order. |
Package with all three $299.97 plus shipping.
Package with all three. Please contact me if you want to modify the time for the timer. It will take me a bit to build the timer and get the package shipped out since I am building the timers to order currently.
The Bigelow Brook Farms Controllers can also be modified to operate the actuators.
If you are into electronics, you can probably make your own timer.
I’ll Send you a pdf of the block diagram, parts list and info about how I did my timers for $15.
Or you can patch together any timer plus a relay and a 24 VAC power supply to run the actuator but that can become a bit cumbersome if you are trying to also make it weatherproof.
