Hello! I'm using an Aquaero for the first time in a new build and wanted to have a few people look it over and help me out.
System is dual loop, and I'd like to be able to control both loops independently. Here are the parts I have planned:
-Aquaero 6 Pro
-D5 Pumps w/ Aquaero Interface (1 on each loop, total of 2)
-Aquacomputer G1/4 Temp Sensor (1 on each loop, total of 2)
-Aquacomputer Flow Sensor Flow 400 (1 on each loop, total of 2)
-EK Vardar PWM Fans (4 on each loop, total of
My goal is to have both loops (pumps and fans) scale with their respective water temperatures. I am using a large Case Labs case so room for extra accessories is not an issue.
- What is the most efficient way to have 2 D5's connected via Aquabus that can be independently controlled, while at the same time integrating 2 flow sensors? I would need 4 Aquabus inputs, using some sort of combination of expansion modules (real time clock? poweradjust? etc). If there is a simper way of doing this, I'd be open to any suggestions. I'm a little confused with the options in regards to Aquabus vs USB, etc.
- I assume it would be safe to run 4 fans per channel (via splitter), as the total draw of all 8 fans would be less than 17 watts, but assurance would be nice.
- Any issues with using the 400 flow sensors? The research I have done has pointed to these being the correct choice with a D5 loop.
Any other thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated.
