We are happy to introduce the Egrowr control module 

The Egrowr control module is finally ready for beta testing. Orders start now and the shipping is scheduled 7 days after payment is received.

 

Control module price (worldwide shipping and power supply included) :

180.00 USD 

Ref: CTRLMOD

 

conversion rate : 1 EUR = 1.18 USD

 

The control module connects to the Egrowr monitoring device through the extention port. All remote commands are received by the monitoring device and forwarded to the control module through the extention port.

 

13 configurable outputs

Outputs' purpose is to power 12 volt accessories like :

 

> dosing pumps for nutrients, acidity corrector or many other solutions

 

> solenoid valves / pumps for fresh water intake (and EC down)

 

> irrigation pumps for water circulation

 

> relays to command 110/220 volt power sockets (futur release)

8 configurable inputs

 

Each input can be configured to react to the following events :

 

> Low reservoir water level 

action = activate the water intake as long as the input is active

 

> Low nutrient/pH up-down level

action = send push notification to the user

 

> Flood

action = stop the irrigation pump and send notification to the user (futur release)

 

Each input has a customizable notification text.

 

 

Features:

> Battery backed time and date keeping with a 3 years battery included

> Individual output drive capability

> Manual and automatic EC and pH correction

> Automatic dosing of 2 and 3 parts nutrient packs (i.e. 40% micro, 50 % bloom, 10 % grow)

> Schedule for lights
> Schedule for irrigation pump (day and night)

> Logs stored on the internal memory of the control module as well as on the Egrowr Cloud

 

Many different configurations are possible with the control module.

It is possible to use external accessories (pumps, sensors, relays) after consulting with us. The 12V power supply capability (3 Amp) should never be exceeded and the current of each output should stay under 1.8 Amp.

 

Please send us an e-mail at egrowr@egrowr.com with references and quantities you want to order or with any questions you may have.

 

Beta limitations:

The web dashboard is the only way to send commands and save settings on the control module for now. A free Cloud subscription is offered for all beta testers.

The next step will be to create a simplified interface on the Egrowr monitoring device that allows the user to interact with the control module. Finally, the mobile app will be updated to add a control module interface.

 

The control module has been tested and should be stable enough to handle most situations and scenarios. However, it is not recommended to leave it working on its own for several days until the end of the Beta phase.

 

Please report any issues that have been spotted and please send us comments and suggestions so that we can improve the user experience. We will release firmware updates on a regular basis.

 

The control module and all accessories are covered with a warranty and will be replaced for free if they fail during the first year of usage.

 

 

Accessories

All accessories comes with a 1.5 m - 5 ft cable that can be extended

 

Liquid level sensors

 

Liquid level sensors are used to detect low levels in the main reservoir or inside a nutrient/acidity corrector bottle

 

Unit price :

11.00 USD (up to 3 units)

9.00 USD (3+ units)

Dosing pumps with magnetic fixation

 

 

Dosing pumps with a flow rate of about 0.25 ml/sec that allows micro dosing of nutrients, acidity corrector and any other supplements.

Equipped with a magnetic fixation and a tubing guide.

Available in two versions : standard and corrosion resistant 

 

standard version:

Unit price :

25 USD (up to 3 units)

22 USD (3+ units)

including 50 cm (20 inches) of silicon tubing and magnetic fixation

Ref: DOSST

 

corrosion resistant version:

Unit price :

31 USD (1 unit)

28 USD (2+ units)

including 50 cm (20 inches) of TYGON © A-60-G extreme pH resistant tubing and magnetic fixation

Irrigation and tank filling pump

 

12 volt pump that can be used either for water circulation or as fresh water supplier.

Available in different flow rates:

 

19W - 600 to 800 L/h (160 to 210 Gal/h)

Unit price : 39 USD

Ref: PUMP19W

 

10W - 500 L/h (130 Gal/h)

Unit price : 34 USD

Ref: PUMP10W

 

5W - 240 L/h (70 Gal/h)

Unit price : 18 USD

Ref: PUMP5W

 

 

Solenoid valve

 

Solenoid valve can be used to provide fresh water from pressurized pipes in order to increase the water level of the resevoir or to lower its EC.

Only for quick operations up to 30 seconds.

 

Unit price : 16 USD

Ref: SOLV

 

The solenoid valve should not be used with RO filter because of the longer operation time required to deliver small amount of RO water.

If an RO filter needs be used, you should do this in a separate tank. A 12 volt pump will then add the RO water from this tank to the main reservoir.

 

 

Cable extention (1.5 m - 5 ft)

 

If you need a longer cable, you can ask us to make it longer or buy an extention cable

Unit price : 4.90 USD

Ref: EXTWIRE

 

If you plan to use the control module with external device (pump, valvle, relay), you can order wires equipped with a connector on one end and then solder the orther end directly to your device. 

IMPORTANT: don't forget to ask us first if the control module can handle your device.

Unit price : 3.90 USD
