    seio

    Hmm.....I didn't know there is 1500 for seio. What I know is only 1100. Btw check my pm.........
  11. Okie..dokie..........I'm back on track..... shooh!! what a back breaking indeed. Been busy for the past few days . Now..... my next move..... create a kalk container....
  12. Aaahhhh .... my house is flooded . Gosh! It is really messy.... guess what my powerhead rubber tubing leading to skimmer give way. No time to continue my projects........... omg my back is aching cleaning the house... not to say my carpet..... Worst was the water splattered on the power supply....... whole house blackout ....... lucky thing my circuit breaker works fine......... now must find cover liao...... and replace all tubing... Lesson learnt -> check ur tubing for tear and wear regularly. There goes all my weekend.......grrrr
  13. hahaha ......... indeed......might consider putting some lighting to illuminate the kalk into multi-color ...hehehe
  14. Hmm... tested the stuff and its working fine.... first I need to refix the gear ratio so that it wont move too slow or too fast. Once I'm done with this part my next move is to create the mixer chamber. The chamber should be round or square Round slightly costly - need to purchase the round acrylic and round base too Square is cheaper - Got the acrylic oledi.... just need to measure, cut & assemble and can also go along with square base Going to be messy this weekend.
  15. Sorry ......... too big....... now smaller one
  16. For a start........ the intended stirrer unleashed...
  17. No offence Amteo.... indeed ur opinion did help me to think of other aspects for consideration 1. I will place the control valve at the clear tube instead of the output tube. This will ease the control of water flow so as not to cause backflow in the mixer chamber (Refer to my attach diagram 2) - just my presumption 2. To balance the evaporation and drip rate will definitely takes time. I can't expect much from a DIY stuff until I'm certain it really works after few months of constant running. For sure I can't control the amount of concentrated kalk flows from this stuff - unsure of the calculation done 3. Pressurised water taken care of, with the placement of control valve at the clear tubing.... well hopefully it works Cheers... DIY_KALKWASSER_DRIPPER_2.doc
  18. Jem......... will hunt for the barang-barang this weekend ..... the control valve will be place at the clear tube to prevent overflow at the chamber. Water will remain at the desired level and any excess will slowly flow thru the uncontrolled outlet. Photo Hopefully my friend can borrow his DC for a week or two so that I can keep you guys posted ... hehehe
  19. Aquabeanz... hor..... but I won't give up now I had an ... instead of having the control valve at the output.... would be better if I fixed drip counter(bubble counter....whatever u name it hehehe) but definitely it can prevent the overflow part ........ yeah
  20. Hi Jem.... nice work there but I believe u need to wait for the kalk to settle down before u can pour it into the container. I have it too but the outlet from the top cover (nutrafin bottle). If you notice, my propose dripper came with a stirrer and kalk is constantly circulating at a slow speed (got the motor from unused stuff) thus causing the kalk to dissolve slowly. But I'm not sure how to prevent the water from seeping thru the stirrer rod which might be hazardous. That's why I need advise from DIY gurus how to prevent the water from backflow. If I were to control the drip counts for sure the chamber will be filled and overflow. Just my one cent opinion.
  21. Oops forgot to attach the diagram DIY_KALKWASSER_DRIPPER.doc
