Need help on a timer circuit design. I'm an idiot at IC design. But, I can solder.
I need a timer that does this-
When DC 12V power is applied to Input 1 it starts a timer (timer needs to be variable from 1 to 10 minutes) during this time DC 12V is outputted on Output 1. When timer completes no voltage output on Output 1.
Note- Power will continue to be applied to Input 1 after the timer completes.
Application -> when water flows through a Magnetic Water Flow Switch the circuit is closed that switch & voltage from a battery is connected to Input 1. When waters starts flowing through the pipe I want the timer to start which applies voltage to a flow control valve which opens a valve.
Whats happening is water is flowing into a water storage area which gets dirty very frequently. There is a drain on the bottom of the water storage container. So water starts going into the water storage area the drain valve opens and basically clears out the dirt. After a few minutes the storage area is clean the drain valve closes and water continues to flow until it's full.
If someone can help me with the design or point me to the design schematic somewhere on the internet that would be very helpful.
