Abstract
Water is very precious for the living beings and scarcity of the same is
gradually increasing. Most of the cities in the county and that of the world
are facing this problem. This is one of the motivations for the current work
and to deploy techniques in order to save water and help the environment
which in turn ensures water for the future. Hence, it is of utmost importance
to preserve and save water. In many houses there exists unnecessary wastage
of water due to overflow from overhead tanks etc. Automatic Water Level
Controller can provide a solution to this problem. Automatic Water Level
Controller can provide a solution to this problem. The operation of water
level controller is based on the fact that water conducts electricity. As the
water level rises or fall the sensing probes and circuits of the controller detect
the same. These signals are used to switch ON or switch OFF the pump
motor as per requirements. This system is used to automate the process
of water pumping to over-head tank storage and has the facility to select
the level of water to pump. The logical situations using electronic circuit
manage the system.

Introduction
1.1 Introduction
Water is very precious and needed for many and every activities. The
storage of water for the domestic,industrial, agricultural or other such needs
is very important. The pump motor is of single phase AC and operated
using relay from the controller. The present work do not incorporate any
Microcontroller instead use Transistors and Timer IC555. It will automat-
ically switch ON and OFF the domestic water pump to fill the over head
tank to the set level or volume of water. The main advantage of this wa-
ter level controller circuit is that it automatically controls the water pump
without any user interaction. It is built with simple electronic components.
In this project, The heart of this pump controller circuit is NE555 IC.
Water level controller does help to control the level of water automatically
by using sense probe/circuit of the tank. This system not only monitors the
water level of the tank, it switches ON the motor automatically whenever
overhead tank is empty. The motor is switched OFF when the required level
in the overhead tank is reached along with LED indications. Pump motor is
not started whenever underground water level is below the pre set threshold.
Using this system we can avoid the overflow and wastage of the water.

Literature Review
2.1 Literature review
1.Ajinkya Kaner, Milind Rane published paper entitled as ”Automatic Wa-
ter Level Indicator And Controller(To control water level of overhead tank)”.
”Designed a system with simple logic with LED, resister, transistor and elec-
tronic devices The operation of water level controller works upon the fact
that water conducts electricity due to the presence of minerals within it. As
the water level rises, different circuits in the controller send different signals.
These signals are used to automatically switch OFF the motor pump so as
to avoid the unnecessary wastage of water”.

entitled as ”AUTOMATIC WATER LEVEL INDICATOR”.
In this project A water level indicator may be defined as a system
by which we can get the information of water within the reservoir. Water
level indicator systems are quite useful to reduce the wastage of water from
any reservoir, while filling such reservoir. The wires with colours Blue, Red,
Green and Yellow are adjusted to check Level 1, Level 2, Level 3 and Level 4
respectively. Each of these four wires are connected to the amplifier. In this
project we have de-signed the sensor to measure water up to four levels. Four
seg-ments of insulated conducting wires are used and the naked ends within
water are connected with carbon rods. The length of the wire segments are
adjusted according to the water levels within the resoirvoir.

switch on, tank start to filling and when water reached along our required
level the motor is switch off automatically.

3.1.2 Timer IC555


One of the most versatile linear ICs is the 555 timer which was first intro-
duced in early 1970 by Signetic Corporation giving the name as SE/NE 555
timer. This IC is a monolithic timing circuit that can produce accurate and
highly stable time delays or oscillation. Like other commonly used op-amps,
this IC is also very much reliable, easy to use and cheaper in cost. It has a va-
riety of applications including monostable and astable multivibrators, dc-dc
converters, digital logic probes, waveform generators, analog frequency me-
ters and tachometers,temperature measurement and control devices, voltage
regulators.The timer IC555 is an integrated circuit used in verity of timer,
pulse generation and oscillator application .IC555 package includes 25 tran-
sistors, 2 diodes, 15 resistor on a silicon chip installed in an 8-pin dual in
line package.

Figure 3.2: NE 555


There are three modes are in Timer IC555
• Astable mode: This means there will be no stable level at the output.
So the output will be swinging between high and low. This character
of unstable output is used as a clock or square wave output for many
applications.

Department of Instrumentation Engg. VPM’s MPCOE, Velneshwar

• Mono-stable mode:This confiuration consists of one stable and one un-


stable state.The stable state can be chosen either high or low by the
user.If the stable output is set at high(1) ,the output of the timer
is high(1).At the application of an interrupt,the timer output turns
low(0).Since the low state is unstable it goes to high(1) automatically
after the interrupt passes.Similar is the case for a low stable monostable
mode.

• Bi-stable mode: In bistable mode, both the output states are stable.
At each interrupt, the output changes from low(0) to high(1) and vice
versa, and stays there. for example, if we have a high(1) output, it will
go low(0) till the next interrupt changes the status.

3.1.3 Pin Diagram of Timer IC55

Figure 3.3: NE 555

The explanation of terminals coming out of the 555 timer IC is as follows.

• Pin 1: Grounded Terminal: All the voltages are measured with respect
to this terminal.

• Pin 2: Trigger Terminal: This pin is an inverting input to a comparator


that is responsible for transition of flip-flop from set to reset.The output

8
Department of Instrumentation Engg. VPM’s MPCOE, Velneshwar

of the timer depends on the amplitude of the external trigger pulse


applied to this pin.

• Pin 3: Output Terminal: Output of the timer is available at this pin.


There are two ways in which a load can be connected to the output
terminal either between pin 3 and ground pin (pin 1) or between pin 3
and supply pin (pin 8). The load connected between pin 3 and ground
supply pin is called the normally on loadand that connected between
pin 3 and ground pin is called the normally off load.

• Pin 4: Reset Terminal: To disable or reset the timer a negative pulse is


applied to this pin due to which it is referred to as reset terminal. When
this pin is not to be used for reset purpose, it should be connected to
+ VCC to avoid any possibility of false triggering.

• Pin 5: Control Voltage Terminal: The function of this terminal is to


control the threshold and trigger levels. Thus either the external voltage
or a pot connected to this pin determines the pulse width of the output
waveform. The external voltage applied to this pin can also be used to
modulate the output waveform. When this pin is not used, it should
be connected to ground through a 0.01 micro Farad to avoid any noise
problem.

• Pin 6: Threshold Terminal: This is the non-inverting input terminal of


comparator 1, which compares the voltage applied to the terminal with
a reference voltage of 2/3 VCC. The amplitude of voltage applied to
this terminal is responsible for the set state of flip-flop.

• Pin 7: Discharge Terminal: This pin is connected internally to the


collector of transistor and mostly a capacitor is connected between this
terminal and ground. It is called discharge terminal because when tran-
sistor saturates, capacitor discharges through the transistor. When the
transistor is cut-off, the capacitor charges at a rate determined by the
external resistor and capacitor.

• Pin 8: Supply Terminal: A supply voltage of + 5 V to + 18 V is applied


to this terminal with respect to ground (pin 1).

3.1.4 Transistor

BC547 is an NPN bi-polar junction transistor (BJT).Mostly it is used


for the switching purpose as well as for amplificaton purposes. Similar to
the other transistors BC547 is also used for the amplification of current.The
smallest amount of current at the base is used to control the larger amount
of currents at collector and emitter as well. Its basic application.BC547 has
three pins in total similar to the other bipolar junction transistors. All of
these pins i.e. collector, base and emitter. BC548 is general purpose silicon
NPN bi polar junction transistor.

3.1.5 Single Pole Double Throw Relay Switch


The SPDT Relay (10A) [JQC-3FC (T73) DC5V] is a high quality Single
Pole Double Throw Relay (SPDT). The Relay consists of a coil, 1 common
terminal, 1 normally closed terminal, and one normally open terminal. When
the coil of the relay is at rest (not energized), the common terminal and the
normally closed terminal have continuity. When the coil is energized, the
common terminal and the normally open terminal have continuity. This
relay’s coil is rated up to 5V and the contact is rated up to 10A (@120VAC,
24VDC). In this project we have connected the motor to the normally closed
terminal due to which it can keep on working until the tank gets completely
filled and common terminal shifts to the normally open terminal which in
turn disconnects the motor from the circuit.

3.1.6 Diodes
A diode is a semiconductor device which allows current to flow through
it in only one direction.That is the current should always flow from the anode
to cathod. The cathode terminal can be identified by using a grey bar as
shown in the figure

For 1N4007 Diode, the maximum current carrying capacity is 1A it


withstand peaks up to 30A. Hence we can use this in circuits that are de-
signed for less than 1A. The reverse current is 5uA which is negligible. The
power dissipation of this diode is 3W.

3.1.7 LED’s
A light-emitting diode(LED) is a semiconductor light source that emits
light when current flows through it. Electrons in the semiconductor recom-
bined with electron holes, releasing energy in the form of photons. Color of
light id determined by the energy required for electron to cross band gap of
the semiconductor. We are using three LED’s of colour red, yellow, green.

Figure 3.8: LED’s

3.1.8 Resistors
A resistor is a passive two-terminal electrical component that imple-
ments electrical resistance as a circuit element. In electronic circuits, resis-
tors are used to reduce current flow, adjust signal levels, to divide voltages,
bias active elements,etc.

3.2 Development stages


3.2.1 Project Simulation

Figure 3.10: Simulation Circuit for Water level controller and indicator

Figure 3.10 shows the Circuit Simulation of our project ”Automatic


Water Level Controller and Indicator”.

The working of water level controller is understood easily in above figure


3.10. Left side overhead tank is simulated by a water container and a bottle
at right side to for underground tank. Level probes are installed in overhead
and underground tank as required. Let over head tank is empty or level is
below the threshold then the circuit switches ON the pump motor provided
the minimum level of water is present in the underground tank else do not
turns ON. The user has the choice of selecting the water level of over head
tank by the selector given. Let us assume the level chosen is 2 and then
the pump status is ON till the water level of the over head tank reaches to
respective sensing probe. Once the probe is sensed the pump turns OFF.
The pump motor is stopped by the circuit once the level is reached. This is
very useful in providing proportional or sharing of water by group of houses
from common source by providing selected volume of water for the user.
