Timers

[Alberta-newb]

I used to work with instrumentation about 20 years ago, one unit called a "recycle timer" will fit the bill but they are not cheap. They can be programed with independant on off durations anywhere from about 1/10 second to hours.

Here's an example: http://www.airotronics.com/site/prod...cycle_TGKD.php

I have an old one somewhere in my house I was saving to make a wave maker 20 years ago but be darned if I can find it now I'm sure there are plenty of instrumentation suppliers locally that can source one but be prepared to pay $150 to $500 for one.

wow... that's expensive... I think I might be better to purchase a variable speed peristaltic pump. They are about $200.00

That was pretty much my conclusion too. I still think you should try looking for one of these percentage timers though. I'm betting they're $50ish so it's worthwhile finding out where one could be had.

Any luck at the hydroponics stores Jim?
