Fabrication of a Prototype Model of a Solar Powered Smart Water Level Monitor System.

Abstract

Most of the people in residential areas face the problem of running out of water and overflow of water in water tanks due to excess supply of water. It becomes difficult for users to judge the level of water in water tanks. When the pump is turned ON, users will not realize that the water tank is filled, which may result in overflow. Water level indicator and controller system is used to sort out the issues associated with water tank. It is also possible to check the level of the water using sensor so that whenever the water goes below, pump gets turned ON automatically. Also when there is overflow of water in water tank it uses sensor to detect the water level so that if the water level goes above, the pump gets turned off automatically. This system prevents wastage of water. This system not only takes the intelligent decision of switching ON/OFF the water pump depending on the water level present. Also, solar energy is used to power up the water pump. This system also provides provision for storing solar energy which can be used during nights to ON the water pump. owner plays a great role wherever man lives and works. The living standard and prosperity of a nation vary directly with the increase in the use of power. The electricity requirement of the world is increasing at an alarming rate due to industrial growth increased and extensive use of electrical gadgets. According to world energy report we get around 80% of our energy from conventional fossil fuels like oil (36%), natural gas (21%) and coal (23%). It is well known that the time is not so far when all these sources will be completely exhausted. So, alternative sources should be used to avoid energy crisis in the nearby future. The best alternative source is solar energy
