Seeking Power Supply Info: Aquabot Bravo

[rickmnj]

Hi All:

A friend gave me an Aquabot Bravo but with no power supply. I've been trying to identify the appropriate unit and have had no luck.
My cleaner has the round, screw in connector and most others have the rectangular plug (like PC computer power connector)

Does anyone know the model or part number for the power supply I'm looking for? Any info on the output specs would be appreciated as well. Is it 12 or 24 volt output, AC or DC, wattage/amperage and pin/wiring specs.

Thanks!

Rick

No luck with checking auctions or google.

Hey bud, not sure if you found the information you need, but they should be able to help you. They are locates near the manufacturer (I believe)

It will be hard to find info on the bravo and viva as they are limited models. They are the same as the blue diamond and blue diamond remote control respectively so the power supply from the blue diamond will work. aquaquality pool as well as other dealers sell water tech blue diamond parts, but IMHO if the supply is much more than 200, its probably not worth it

Wattage: 140 Watts
Voltage: 24 V at cleaner

Pretty simple to sort out. Search ebay for "24V 350W Power supply" - you should pick up a switchmode supply that's a clone of a meanwell for about $50 - Put it in a waterproof box and you should be fine.

As for the pinouts - looks like if it has a 'bag full' indicator, its probably a pressure switch (and should be 'normally open'). The polarity should be interesting to figure out though... How are you with using a multimeter? There is probably a diode to protect the electronics from reverse polarity.
