Hello all,
Been working on my Senior Project of Water-cooling a Tool-changing 3D printer with the goal of printing HT Plastics (PEEK, PEKK, Etc.). I am using the HevORT as the "printer" and using E3D's hardware for the tool-changing operations.
I am looking for redundancy here, I want a "failsafe" for my water loop should my pump stop working. I found this "flow indicator" and from what I see, it uses a 3 pin connection, and typically plugs into a fan header on a motherboard, this makes sense to me.
Check it out HERE
My question is, how would I trigger an "E-Stop", or "Kill heat" command with this Flow meter's Tach reading "zero", which would indicate a stoppage of flow.
Let me know if you have any ideas.
Thanks in advance.
