🧠CoralVue HYDROS Control X3 — Controller Only (HDRS‑CX3)
Compact, mid‑tier HYDROS automation brain for ATO, pH monitoring, leak detection, and Command Bus integration.
🔍 Description
The Control X3 (controller only) is a versatile, mid‑range HYDROS controller that provides core automation and safety functions without bundled probes or sensors. It offers a balanced set of I/O for hobbyists who want to build custom controller boards, expand an existing HYDROS Collective, or purchase sensors separately to match their setup. The X3 runs local automation rules, reports sensor data to the HYDROS app, and participates in Command Bus redundancy for higher reliability.
⚙️ Key Specifications
Sense Ports: 3 × Sense Ports for temperature sensors, optical water‑level sensors, leak detectors, float switches, rope sensors.
Drive Port: 1 Ă— Drive Port for ATO pumps, solenoids, cabinet LEDs, or dosing stirrers.
Probe Port: 1 Ă— Probe Port (pH).
Command Bus: 2 Ă— Command Bus ports for HYDROS Collective networking and accessory integration.
Enclosure: Rugged, aquarium‑grade housing suitable for cabinet or sump mounting.
Connectivity: Wi‑Fi/cloud via HYDROS app for remote monitoring and alerts.
đź”— Compatibility & System Uses
Compatible HYDROS Devices
Controllers: X2; X3; X4; X10
Power & Flow: XP8; Kraken; WaveEngine v2; WaveEngine LE
Accessories: All HYDROS Sense Port and Drive Port accessories; Command Bus cables and terminators
Compatible Equipment (examples)
ATO pumps and solenoids; temperature probes; pH probes; optical water‑level sensors; leak sensors; cabinet sensors; dosing stirrers.
🎯 Ideal Uses
