Hey all! I am finding this forum very useful!
This may seem a bit elementary, but I am new to circuits. I am currently on a project to build a circuit for a conveyor belt that stops when it senses metal near the magnetic sensor.
I am using a 1000rpm motor that has about 1/2 HP. I want the motor to run when there is not metal, and stop when it detects metal.
Power source: 120VAC, 60hz power.
The main components are motor (have), power source (have), relay (not sure what to choose), magnetic sensor (?).
Any help is appreciated!
