Ultrasonic Water Level Indicator Guide

Ultrasonic sensors and an Arduino board are used to build a water level indicator system. The system uses ultrasonic sensors to detect the water level in an overhead tank and transmits this data wirelessly to a receiver circuit. The receiver circuit then displays the water level percentage on an LCD and triggers a buzzer if the tank is full or empty to notify the user and control the water supply automatically. This system aims to monitor the water level precisely and help save water by preventing overflow or running out.

WATER LEVEL INDICATOR USING
ARDUINO & ULTRASONIC SENSOR

Presented by :

INTRODUCTION
• In our day to day activities, it is common to have shortage of water or
overflow of water in our storage tanks.

• This may cause water spillage and at times the individual might not know that
the water level has dropped so low until the tank is completely emptied.

• So why not build a system that monitors and controls this essential part of our
life?
AIM & OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
• Tonotify the user the amount of water that is present in the
overhead water tank. 

• Toconstruct an electronic device that can automatically detect water


level ( High and Low ) with high precision.

• To control the supply of water.

• To automatically shut down when the tank is filled-up.


COMPONENTS:-
• Arduino uno
• Ultrasonic Sensor (HC-SR04)
• LCD (16X2)
• Switch
• Battery
• RF Transmitter Receiver Pair
• Bread Board
• Jumper wires
Working principle :-
• Ultrasonic sensor is used in the transmitter circuit. It has a trigger and an echo
pin.
• After the HC-SR04 is triggered, it sends out eight 40Khz sound waves to the
surface of the water.
• Distance = ( time/2 ) * speed of sound
• Receiver circuit receives the data from transmitter circuit and converts it in
terms of the percentage and shows on LCD.

Transmitter Circuit:-
Receiver Circuit:-
Transmitter Code:-
#include<RCSwitch.h>
#include <Ultrasonic.h>
Ultrasonic ultrasonic(11,10);
RCSwitch mySwitch = RCSwitch();
int i;
void setup()
{
mySwitch.enableTransmit(4);
}
void loop()
{
i = ultrasonic.Ranging(CM);
mySwitch.send(i, 24);
delay(100);
}
Receiver Code:-
#include <RCSwitch.h>
#include <LiquidCrystal.h>
float level;
int Hval=2;
int Lval=12;
int BUZZER = 10 ;
void setup() {
mySwitch.enableReceive(0);
pinMode(BUZZER,OUTPUT);
}
void loop()
{
if (mySwitch.available()) {
level = mySwitch.getReceivedValue();
level = level/(Lval - Hval);
level = level*100;
if (level > 100) {
digitalWrite(BUZZER,HIGH);
delay(100);
else{
digitalWrite(BUZZER,LOW);
delay(100);}
else {
digitalWrite(BUZZER,LOW);
}
Advantages:- Disadvantages:-
• Power Saver • Water level controls need to be
replaced every 3 years.
• Money Saver
• Ultrasonic sensor is very
•  Automatic sensitive to variation in the
• Reliable Electronic Design temperature.

• Ultrasonic sensor is not affected • Some materials may absorb


due to atmospheric dust, rain, the ultrasonic sound waves
snow etc. rather than reflecting them.
Conclusion:-
• The main objective of this project is not only to reduce manual
labour but also save water in an efficient manner.
• Finally, a conclusion can drawn that this project can definitely be
useful on a large scale basis due to its minimum requirement of
man power and also the installation process being easier making it
more compatible for everyone to use.
