- In this Arduino project, I have shown how to make an automatic water level controller using Arduino and float sensors. This water level monitoring system will also check the water level in both the overhead tank and underground water tank and accordingly control the water pump automatically.

You can always monitor the tank water level for both the water tank and also control the water pump manually in manual mode.
During this video, I made the automatic pump control circuit on zero PCB using the PCB layout, and also shared the water tank level controller circuit and Arduino source code.
In manual mode, the alarm will ring when the tank is full, and when the water level drop below the threshold limit the pump with automatically turn off.

01:31 Quick demo on Arduino based water level controller.
03:29 Required components for this Arduino project.
03:53 Circuit diagram of the Arduino water level sensor.

Please refer to the following video on how the float switch works
• HOW TO INSTALL FLOAT S...
Important points:
1. Set the float switch ON and OFF distance as per the water tank height.
2. Use the relay module as per the pump rating. Here I have used 30A 5V SPDT Relay (Active LOW).
3. If there is no water in the underground tank the pump will not start.
4. You can also use Arduino UNO for this Arduino based project.
5. You can either give the AC supply or the 5V DC supply to this circuit.
6. Please watch the complete video, otherwise you may face some issues.
**Please take proper safety precautions while working with high voltages.
This Arduino-based water level controller will help you to maintain the water level in the tank, also it is very useful to save energy and water resource.
If you face any issues please let me know in the comment section.

Although I haven't yet built this project - I need to adapt it to what I need, this is so well presented, so well thought out and very comprehensive in the help given. Especially the image you can print out and lay on Zero PCB to make the circuit. Well done and thank you.
Where from you got the transparent plastic box ?
Hi, if you can help me with this it would be great, I have a 3m softener which regenerates automatically and at times during regeneration the water level controller turns on the sump motor and hard water goes to the overhead tank. Is there a way to let automatic water level controller to avoid turning on whenever the softener is regenerating? Basically my sump water first goes to the softener and then to the overhead tank. I am not technically sound, but there is a big relay connected with the 3m softener. Please if you can help with this situation
You have made multiple circuit for water level controller which one is best for long run and budget friendly?
Hello, this is exactly what iv'e been looking for, only for my application, I need to have between 6 - 12 upper and lower tanks, easiest option i guess would be to replicate this for each pair of tanks... but would it be possible to just add more upper and lower tanks etc all within 1 arduino ?
Nice job bhai
Can we connect the esp 32 on our home Wifi router and can we control from anywhere by our mobile?
If I connected NPN transistor with Relay and connect it with 12v power supply and if I connected base pin of transistor and positive terminal of battery with the floating sensor then will it work fine ?
How many HP motors can be connected in this circuit?
Very nice, power protesters ad hota to motor sef rheta👌👌👌
Nice video thanks....
Most welcome
Hi, nice work. The water float you are using are 240v how are you using them with an arduuino?
I have one doubt
If the sump high level will be over ride by oht lower level
Have you got the pcb layout for arduino uno? i've sot some already thats all so i'd rather save a few quid than buy nano just for testing it out
In my humble opinion, you did not have to use the float switches at all. Just use two wires/sensors in the underground tank and two in the overhead tank. Once the water touches the sensors write a code in Arduino to take appropriate action. The best way to write code logic is to use two hardware-level interrupts which are available in the Nano. I hope my comments help. This will reduce the cost of the whole project.
wire will get damaged easily due to current flow in the wire( for the sensing) and oxidation
@@polytechnics7612 Low cost magnetic sensors can be used in place of costly float switches
Does it work only with Overhead tank; as code is for both. Pls help.
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
good work bro
Thanks
how many floor this concept will suitable sir
CAN U MAKE IOT BASED ENERGY MITER ITS VERY HELPFULL
Ничего не понял, респект тебе за внедрение в технологии саму ардуино, напиши пожалуйста как часто ардуино выходит из строя
Bro... I have a small idea for home automation project... If that is possible that would make this project even more useful.... Can you add IR transmitter code to the home automation project so that we can control IR devices (like AC, etc)using voice commands or ESP Rainmaker app?
Please do reply about this idea... Is it worth it?
Samarsable starter panel water level controller make . As same future but not using float sensor ,add in future started moter buzzer in beep beep ,and beep stop in tank full then moter stop,and stop conditions check every 40 second start moter ya stop.then start automatically off.
what about dry run conduction bro
Brother you are designing wonderful pcb, but still why are you using zero pcb? You can use clad board right? And do etching know!
Can't upload, always shows, Acebutton.h ;no such file or directory
How to set the level
Bravoo... Hello sir. Esp32 Webserver and HTTP mobile app please tutorial
Hai bro can u make a video for water low level and high level announcement only ( no motor operation) using Arduino uno and TF card mini mp3 module plz? 3 wire float switch for low level and high level to be used. For only upper tank
Is there limit to the distance of wire for both float sensor and water pump?
I own apartment which is 6 story high.
No limit. In my case the overhead Tank is 5 story high. So I have used extra wire
distance depends on wire quality
Hai bro can u make a video for water low level and high level announcement only ( no motor operation) using Arduino uno and TF card mini mp3 module plz?
What happens if I connected the sensor ( used in both tank) directly in motor connection (series connection with motor wire). Will it work? As the sensor has 16 amp current rating
It will work, but in that case you will send 220V AC supply to sensor. It will create hazard, If there is any leakage in sensor. So I have sent 5v dc
Simple answer is *YES* it will work
where r u from
Bhai aap kaha se h
Sir, please yehi automatically control water level or motor wale ko esp32 controller ka use kr ke bna ke video upload kijye n sir
Okay
I request a tidal beach water level sensor monitor
notifies the water level every hour
example:
February 02, 2023 00:00 15CM
February 02, 2023 01:00 18CM
February 02, 2023 02:00 22CM
February 02, 2023 03:00 17CM onwards
with real time data send to telegram bot
or send to google sheets
Useful video... thanks for sharing...
Welcome
Don't need all these stuff to do it, just connect the three wires from both side in an orderly ways. Let me show you the ways to make it, to make it simple, let's name the level controller A and B.
Just simply connect the A red with power , A Green with B Red, A black with B green and lastly connect the pump with B black along with the main line power. And you can switch off the main line using a switch . If you hesitate, experiment it with led light and a pencil battery.
Sketch please master
How much cost THIS project make?
It required only three cores 1mm wires and a switch (to switch off the main line power) . Take a look at my comment, I did it by own idea, it works fine. Just connect the three wires from both side in an orderly ways. If you hesitate, test it with an led light and two pensil batteries, since it required at least 3 volts power supply.
What benefit we will get to use this arduino relay circuit even we can just use this switches directly?
There is both AUTO and MANUAL mode. Pls watch the complete video.
@@TechStudyCell Complete video watched Bro regarding auto/ manual mode we can use with tank switches as well then what use to make it more complicated?

Too complicate
you don't even need an arduino to make this.
