Water Tank Overflow Prevention

Abstract

Water deficiency is that the serious issue in major cities. It is a standard drawback that is faced by each house owner, that once his tank is empty he has got to switch on the motor and switch the motor off when it is full. Owing to the busy life it is common that the tank usually overflows without notice. One has got to stick with it on observing his tank water level to switch off the motor once it is switched on. And typically this can also happen that the motor coil burns due to absence of water in the sump. Thus these are the everyday problem that motivated us in coming up with an inexpensive, wireless automatic water level control system that doesn’t need any attention once it is installed.

In this paper we have mentioned about design and implementation of water level control system that is wireless, automatic, cost effective and reliable. It usages two Radio Frequency transceivers along with a controller each installed at the tank and sump. Radio Frequency transceivers are used for wireless communication. It is fully automated with the assistance of a micro controller. The system doesn’t need any attention of the user unless the sump is empty. Installation cost is reduced since the system is wireless. It is reliable because it has no issue arising after installation like breakage of wire.
