Automatic Gas Valve Control System using Arduino Hardware
Journal Title: Bonfring International Journal of Power Systems and Integrated Circuits - Year 2012, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
In this paper, the automatic gas valve control system is designed using arduino hardware. Arduino is an open hardware platform that provides a rapid prototype development. A servomotor is fitted to a gas valve. Four control positions are carried out by the module, two main positions are used to open or close the valve. The valve opens at 90? and closes to 0?. This library allows an Arduino board to control RC (hobby) servo motors. Servos have integrated gears and a shaft that can be precisely controlled.
