reef-pi Aquarium Controller Brain

thingiverse

3D printable housing for a reef-pi aquarium controller that is being designed by Ranjib on Reef2Reef. https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/reef-pi-an-opensource-reef-tank-controller-based-on-raspberry-pi.289256/ Designs consist of a main housing / brain and an 8 socket power board (found here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3024281). These parts have been designed to be printed on any printer with a build volume of more than 200mm x 200mm. F360 files are all included for people to change and remix as they require. Main housing / brain This is printed in 2 parts (box & lid) that are held together with M3 bolts or screws with an optional logo and text plate. The brain has mounting holes for: - a Raspberry Pi 3 (https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi-3-model-b-plus.html), and - a Half Size - RPi Proto Breadboard (https://www.amazon.com/Half-Size-Breadboard-Raspberry-Header/dp/B01DDANXQQ/ref=pd_lpo_vtph_147_tr_img_2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=EKXFWMS3KFQXBTF9RTWV) On the front there is holes for: - 2x DC barrel jacks + 2x RJ-45 keystone jacks to connect up to 2x 8 socket power boards (https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/10PCS-Metal-DC-Power-Supply-Socket-Panel-Mount-Female-Jack-Connector-5-5-x-2-1mm-/391642099894?hash=item5b2fb030b6 and https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/25pcs-180-Degree-Angle-RJ45-UTP-Keystone-Wall-Jack-Coupler-Adapter-Cat6-/282353800189?hash=item41bd9913fd) - 2x RJ-45 keystone jacks for 2x I2C modules (could be a doser, lighting controller, pH module etc.) (https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/25pcs-180-Degree-Angle-RJ45-UTP-Keystone-Wall-Jack-Coupler-Adapter-Cat6-/282353800189?hash=item41bd9913fd) - 3x RJ-45 keystone jacks for temperature probes or other inputs/outputs (https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/25pcs-180-Degree-Angle-RJ45-UTP-Keystone-Wall-Jack-Coupler-Adapter-Cat6-/282353800189?hash=item41bd9913fd) - 8x audio jacks (can be used for water level switches etc) (https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/3-5mm-Stereo-Audio-Female-Jack-Socket-Connector-Panel-Mount-Solder-Lot-1-8-BS4-/252412113186?var=&hash=item0) - 2x DC barrel jacks for power in / out options (note if you do use 12v to power the reef-pi as the box label says, you will need to add a buck converter, there is currently no mounting holes for a buck converter) https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/10PCS-Metal-DC-Power-Supply-Socket-Panel-Mount-Female-Jack-Connector-5-5-x-2-1mm-/391642099894?hash=item5b2fb030b6 The brain housing is still a work in progress, and I have not yet completed the final versions. The power board has been printed and wired up but not yet tested. A housing for a light controller & pH module will also be uploaded when it is designed. To make it easier to remix, a version of this housing with a blank I/O panel can be found here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3660375 Make sure to share any remixes!
