Assessment Of Water Level Indicator Using Aurdino And ULTrasonic Sensor LCD Display

Abstract

The Water Level Indicator system is designed to monitor and display the water level in a tank or container using an Arduino microcontroller and an ultrasonic sensor. This project aims to automate the process of water level detection, reducing the need for manual checks and ensuring efficient water usage. The ultrasonic sensor emits sound waves that reflect off the water surface, and the time it takes for the echo to return is used to calculate the distance between the sensor and the water. The Arduino processes this information and calculates the water level accordingly. The water level is then displayed on an LCD screen, providing real-time updates to the user. A visual display helps in understanding the exact level of water, while a buzzer or other indicators can be used to alert users when the water reaches certain critical levels (e.g., full or low). This project is particularly useful in applications such as household water tanks, industrial systems, and agricultural setups, where timely monitoring and control of water levels are essential. This report describes the design and implementation of. a water level indicator system using an Arduino microcontroller, ultrasonic sensor (HC-SR04), and a relay-controlled water pump. The system monitors water levels in both the overhead and reserve tanks and automatically activates the pump to transfer water when necessary. The objective is to automate water management for improved efficiency and monitoring.
