    The document describes a water level indicator project created by two students for their Bachelor of Technology degree. [1] The project uses transistors, resistors, LEDs and a buzzer to indicate the water level in an overhead tank. [2] It works by placing wires at different water levels in the tank, such that the components will activate sequentially as the water rises. [3] When completed, it will notify users of the water level and help reduce water waste.

    INTRODUCTION
    2

    The facility requirements in many industries, farms, hostels,


    hotels, offices include an overhead tank for water, which is
    usually fed through an electric pump that is switched off when the
    tank is filled up and switched on when it is empty. So, the most
    common way of knowing when the tank is filled is by observing
    when it overflows the brim. Depending on the type of liquid being
    handled, overfilling of such a tank could lead to a great liquid
    material losses ranging in the order of thousands of naira per
    week depending on the extent of such application. These losses
    can be prevented if the tank is monitored automatically by
    incorporating a feedback.

    Water level indicator using transistor & buzzer is an amazing and


    very useful project. The objective of this project is to notify the
    user the amount of water that is present in the overhead water
    tank. This project can be further enhanced to control the water
    level in the tank by turning it on, when the water level is low, and
    turning it off when the water level is high.

    COMPONENTS USED
    3

    1.TRANSISTORS-4BC548 is an NPN Bipolar Junction Transistor.


    Mostly it is used for the switching purpose as well as for

    amplification purposes.

    2. RESISTORS - 6A resistor is a passive two-terminal electrical


    component that implements electrical resistance as a

    circuit element. In electronic circuits.

    3.LED's-LIGHT EMITTING DIODE - 3 (Green,Yellow,Red)


    4

    A light-emitting diode (LED) is a semiconductor light source


    that emits light when current flows through it.

    4. BUZZER – 1A buzzer or beeper is an audio signaling device,


    which may be mechanical, electromechanical, or

    piezoelectric (piezo for short)

    5.9 V BATTERY – 1 Battery non rechagable

    PROCEDURE
    1. Insert BC547 transistor on the breadboard. The left one is
    collector, the middle one is base and the last one is the emitter.

    2. Insert the other two transistors as well on the breadboard

    3. Connect 220 ohms resistors to al the collector terminals of the


    transistor of the breadboard.

    4. Now insert the green Led with its anode to the emitter of first
    transistor and cathode to the negative rail of the breadboard and
    do the same for white and red LEDs.

    5. Now connect the buzzer on the breadboard. Connect the


    negative wire of the buzzer to the negative rail of the breadboard
    and positive wire to the emitter of the third transistor.

    6. Connect one wire each to the base of the transistors. Dip the
    other end of

    the wire in the container with water, it is important to dip the wires
    in the water level-wise and not keep the bare ends of the wire on
    the same level.

    7. Connect the power to the circuit and start adding water to the
    bowl and see the LED's light up sequentially and the buzzer buzzing
    at the end.

    WORKING PRINCIPLE
    One electrode wire is with 9V Battery is placed at the
    bottom of tank. Next wires are placed step by step
    above the bottom probe. When the water comes in
    contact with the electrode tip, a conductive path is
    established between the sense electrode and the tank
    wall/reference electrode, which in turn makes the
    transistors conduct to glow LED and indicate the level
    of water.

    APPLICATION

    •Water level indicator is used in applications like


    storage tanks, boilers etc. to indicate level of water
    inside.

    •Can be used to measure underground storage of


    water

    It is used to predict arrival of floods

    •It can be used to calculate incoming and outgoing


    water in large reservoirs

    Automatic Water level Controller can be used in


    Hotels, Factories, Homes Apartments, Commercial
    Complexes, Drainage, etc..

    CONCLUSION

    The water level indicator is the best electronic starter


    device indicating the water level and saves water
    correspondingly. The led blinks according to their
    level of water reaches to them and indicates the
    buzzing sound to stop pouring when it reaches its
    final limit. What are you waiting for let's save water in
    a playful and knowledgeable way
