new incubator build

Yes there is a way. You would have to run 2 24 volt relays from the timer. These would be energized by the timer and would have to switch power from a power suply like a plug in wall transformer but you would need two of them I think. You would still have to use the limit switches in line. I know what needs to be done just hard for me to explain. It may be possible to use just one transformer but not sure without doing some looking into it.

I think ill just stick with the 24vdc it seems easier that way. Thank you for all your help.

No problem hope it helps ya out. Im gonna do some sketching and see what I can figure out for using a relay for different volages of motors. It really wouldnt be that much more I dont think and would give another option.

I think ill try out the motor you put up a link to. Its the cheapest ive seen so far.

Is your turner motor in the front of your incubator?

 

[encorepistol]

Yes it is. It was the easiest place to put it due to the false back.

Does The arms off of the turner get in the way of anything? Im going to make mine fit the GQF egg trays, could you still get them in with the motor in the front?

 

[encorepistol]

Not really. Mine is made to fit the same trays. I can still run the motor using the manual function to get the trays to the level position then run it back where it was.
