Steam Boiler Pressure Controller by Bendigo

Description
A micro controller to manage boiler fill level to maintain pressure without the boiler blowing up.

To use it, connect the nodes from the boiler to the controller, connect use a variable valve connected directly to the boiler then connect the valve with pipes to a tank with fresh water.
Set the default boiler fill level to 4% or lower, connect the variable valve to the controller and a toggle button to start the system. The toggle button can be independent or connected to the ignition of the firebox.
The water flow into the boiler will be adjusted automatically to keep it at a level that the pressure will not exceed 10.

Demo train loco to show how it works.

Thank you [Hobo] That was what I made it to do. It saved me so much hassle, I wanted to share it to hopefully save others the hassle as well.

In the microcontroller, try changing the 340 to a lower number. I am not sure if that will work.
Make sure to change both of the 340s though. try 200 and see if it works. I never tested it to see iif different falues work.

Is it possible to change the pressure regulation to something lower for pistons?
