Source a pressure sensor for the aeroponics subsystem accumulator tank. Reports to computer. Allows for shutoff of pump in case of emergency.
Context
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
There is currently no way to know what pressure the system is at other than when the pump turns off. This is inaccurate and unreliable. In addition, unforseen pump runaway could result in catastrophic tank failure (i.e. violent explosion).
