Abstract – Water is one of the important natural resource. Many times in household, apartments and offices water is wasted unknowingly. This leads to water scarcity. So, water level monitoring is utmost important. As this prevents wastage of water, saves man power and electricity. Level control is one of the most important tasks for the process control engineer. Level control is one of the most important applications in chemical process industries, food beverages industries, pharmaceutical industries, nuclear power generation plants etc. Therefore, there is a need to maintain a constant level of fluid when the fluid inflows and outflows the tank in these industries. Water quality affects the aquatic life and influence the human health, so water quality monitoring is crucial. This paper focuses on literature review of water level and quality monitoring.

Keywords – Water level; Water quality; Ultrasonic sensor, Arduino; LABVIEW; pH sensor; Turbidity sensor;

INTRODUCTION

The daily routine starts with water. It is one of the basic needs to survive. People depend on overhead tank for their daily usage. The overhead tank is made of opaque material to prevent algae growth and is closed with lid to protect from dust, mosquito infestation. So, the water level present in the tank is unknown. Many times we switch on motor and forget to turn off, because of this most of the water will be wasted unknowingly. This leads to water scarcity. So, there is need for alternative which can automatically turn on, off the motor when water is filled up to the desired level. Ultrasonic sensor provides non- contact water level measurement. Water parameters such as pH, turbidity affects water quality. Turbidity, pH sensor helps in monitoring water quality.

Water level monitoring is commonly used in some of the applications like Flood monitoring, River level monitoring, Wetland studies, Tidal studies, Groundwater monitoring, Surface water monitoring. Clean water is essential to sustain life and quality of water plays a vital role in the well-being and health of human beings. The objective of this paper is to review water level and quality monitoring.

This paper is organized as follows: Section II discusses the complete literature review on water level and quality monitoring; Section III illustrates the proposed methodology and Section IV concludes this paper.

LITERATURE REVIEW

The prototype was developed using microcontroller, pH and turbidity sensor. The water level was indicated using LEDs and pumping was done automatically by the controller. Water quality was tested by pH, turbidity, temperature sensor in real

time and was monitored by agent. For leak detection in water pipes force sensitive resistor (FSR) was used [1].

A liquid level monitoring system was developed using electromagnetic valve, float sensors, MATLAB, LABVIEW to maintain liquid level close to the reference level. The restrictions imposed by configuration and working of float sensor leaded to non-achievement of control of 2 levels [2].

Automatic water level indicator was developed using arduino, ultrasonic sensor and GSM. The water level was sensed by ultrasonic sensor and accordingly the motor was switched on and off automatically, SMS alert was sent to user [3].

The water level detection system was designed using ping sensor, microcontroller AT89S51. The water level was measured by ping sensor and the data was sent to receiver module by transmitter module via wireless communication [4].

The prototype was developed using ultrasonic sensor, nodeMCU, LABVIEW. Ultrasonic sensor measured water level. The sensed value was sent to Google cloud platform by nodeMCU. In the LABVIEW front panel the webpage was accessed and accordingly the water level was monitored by adjusting the valves [5].

The system was developed using ATMEGA328, ultrasonic sensor, buzzer, Xilinx. Three tanks were utilised with corresponding ultrasonic sensors. Arduino was the controller. When system was turned on water flows through tank1 after, that tank2 was filled and buzzer was on to indicate two or more tanks are filled. Next, tank3 was filled until level indicator controller detects it and water supply was stopped. Thus, water wastage was prevented. The same was also designed and executed on FPGA using Xilinx ISE. FPGA has proven more advantageous for automated multiple water tanks over microcontroller [6].

The water level sensing and controlling system was designed using PIC microcontroller and water level sensor. The water level sensor was designed, the level was detected and was sent to microcontroller which processed the data and further action of pumping was done. In addition, web based water level monitoring was achieved [7].

The water level control system was designed using two different methods one is PID and the other is fuzzy controller in LABVIEW. The main aim was to keep the water level at the desired set point. When comparison was made fuzzy controller yielded better result over PID with no overshoot, low settling and rising time, robustness [8].

The proposed system consists of arduino UNO, ultrasonic sensor, and pump. The water level was sensed by ultrasonic

sensor. There was an interfacing between arduino and LABVIEW. Depending on the sensor reading the arduino switched on, off the pump accordingly and the water was filled to tank and the same was displayed on LABVIEW front panel. When water is not present in the lower tank and if pump is turned on, the pump gets damaged and power is wasted. This is because lower tank doesnt contain ultrasonic sensor, only upper tank contains [9].

The system was developed using arduino, ultrasonic sensor, LCD and relay. Ultrasonic sensor measures the distance, if the distance is 30cm then pump is turned on by arduino and is displayed on LCD and if distance is about 10cm then pump is turned off and is displayed on LCD [10].

The prototype was developed using arduino microcontroller, water level sensor, buzzer and water pump. The water level sensed by the sensor was sent to the controller and the same was transferred to the Bluetooth module where it, in turn sends the information to the registered mobile. In addition, buzzer was used as an indicator. The sensor is of contact type, the measurement range is limited to only 4cm and has short lifespan when exposed to moist environment and having power applied to the probe constantly speeds the rate of corrosion significantly [11].

The prototype was developed using two PIC microcontrollers. One microcontroller was used at the transmitter side and another at the receiver side. The communication between the two was established using zigbee transceivers module. Here the connecting wires were used as water level sensor. The water level was sensed by the conducting strip. The metal strip will become corrosive due to long time usage and accuracy is limited [12].

The prototype was developed using 89S52 microcontroller, ESP8266 Wi-Fi module, float switches. In this, 4 tanks were taken. Float was used as sensing element. The sensed information was sent to ESP8266 Wi-Fi module which will upload the data to server. The microcontroller was used for controlling water level sensors and motor driver circuits. The system makes use of 16 float switches. The float switches are of contact type and can easily get stuck and doesntmove, it has low accuracy, precision and requires frequent maintenance [13].

The capacitive sensors, signal conditioning circuit were designed. The design cost was less. The total capacitance formed was equal to the water level of the tank. The length of the sensor has to be designed according to the depth of the water storage tank [14].

The prototype was developed using arduino microcontroller, water level sensor, mobile phone. The level of water sensed by the water level sensor was sent to the controller where it, in turn updates the information to server. The information stored in the server was sent to the mobile phone. The user in turn makes the decision to turn on or turn off the motor by operating the buttons in the mobile. The sensor is of contact-type. Measurement range is limited and has short lifespan when exposed to moist environment. Human intervention is necessary [15].

The Flow, temperature, conductivity, pH, oxidation reduction potential sensors were designed. The measuring node consisted of microcontroller which processed the sensor reading and was sent to notification node for display via zigbee. Thus water quality monitoring was done [16].

Ultrasonic ranging module HC-SR04 provides non-contact measurement ranging from 2cm-400cm, the ranging accuracy can reach to 3mm and measuring angle is 15 degree [17].

PH, commonly used for water measurements is a measure of acidity and alkalinity, or the caustic and base present in a solution [18].

The Turbidity sensor detects water quality by measuring the levels of turbidity. It uses light to detect suspended particles in water by measuring the light transmittance and scattering rate, which changes with the amount of total suspended solids (TSS) in water. As the TTS increases, the liquid turbidity level increases [19].

PROPOSED METHODOLOGY

Fig. 1. Block diagram of the proposed system

The block diagram of the proposed system is shown in fig.1. The inputs to the arduino are ultrasonic sensor, pH and turbidity sensor. Interfacing between arduino and LABVIEW will be done. Water level will be detected by ultrasonic sensor. Water quality will be monitored by pH, turbidity sensor. The outputs are buzzer and LCD.

Water level and quality is an important aspect in many applications such as chemical industries, household, pharmaceutical industries, nuclear power generation plants etc. This paper concludes literature review of the level and quality of the water using different international conference and journal papers. The proposed methodology can be used for the objective of this paper. If it is achieved helps in saving man power and electricity.

This paper proposes a quantitative feedback theory (QFT)-based robust controller for controlling the liquid level of a two-tank system. The plant is modelled as a second-order type zero system having interval type of parametric uncertainty using experimental data. The designed controller is required to meet the desired specifications in terms of stability, sensitivity and reference tracking. A two-degree-of-freedom (2-DOF) control structure is adopted comprising a feedback controller and a pre-filter. The controller is designed to meet both stability and sensitivity specifications. The design of the pre-filter is done accordingly meeting the robust tracking specifications. The efficacy of the controller is tested through numerical simulation. The recommended controller strategy surpasses some of the reported controller strategies in literature according to a comparative analysis.

Currently, we live in a world where all fields are developing very rapidly. In particular, the field of water management is developing day by day, and the water supply system is being intelligent automated. Nevertheless, mechanical means and human labor are used to monitor the water level in many water management facilities of our region. This situation causes many problems in the automatic management of the system. In this article, we will consider the process of automating the measurement and control of water level, that is, an automated system that helps to know when the water in the tank is full or empty. In the automation of this system, an ultrasonic sensor that meets the requirements of the time was used. The working principle of ultrasonic sensors is based on the movement of ultrasonic waves over time. The analysis of the results of this experiment showed that the water level measurement and control system did not make more than 1.5% error in different values of the water level. This situation showed that the developed system can be effectively used in all water level control facilities.

A Review of an Automatic Water Level Indicator

2022, Global Journal of Research in Engineering & Computer Sciences

Water is the first thing that comes to mind when I think of my daily routine. This is one of the basic survival needs. People depend on the upper reservoir for everyday use. The upper tank is made of an opaque or cement (concrete) material to prevent algae growth and is closed with a cap to protect it from dust and mosquito infestation. So, the level of water in the tank is unknown. Oftentimes, we turn on the motor and forget to turn it off. Because of this, most of the water will be lost unknowingly. This leads to water scarcity. Therefore, there is a need for a replacement that can start automatically and shut off the motor when the water is filled to the desired level. Automatic water level controllers are products created to automatically control the motor, which helps to ensure that there is a constant reserve of water in the storage tank. These automatic water level controllers are used to automatically fill the overhead tank when it starts up or when it becomes empty and also monitor the water level in it. Automatic water level controllers start the motor when the water level drops below a certain level and turn off the motor when the water rises above a fixed level. The motor will also shut off when the sump water runs out before it fills the upper tank, or if the pump is dry and also maintains voltage fluctuations. These are the latest products based on advanced digital technology. This system is versatile. There are also custom variations, such as controlling multiple pumps or multiple tanks. The carbon water level sensor provides contact water level measurement. The system for controlling water levels is an electronic device that controls the operation of the water pump in subterranean and overhead storage tanks when electrically connected to the starting point of any pump assembly motor. It switches ON the pump assembly when the water level in the overhead tank falls below the preset level. It switches off the pump mount if the water level in the top tank is fully supplied. OFF switches the pump mounting when the underground tank is at low water level. ON switches the pumping group if the tank has enough water. The automatic system for regulating the water level is the result of technical research. It can automatically switch on and off the domestic water pump set according to the water level in the reservoir. You can implement this driving pattern at your home or college using less expensive components. The most important advantage of this circuit is that it

This is an Arduino based automatic water level controller and indicator project. Here, we are going to measure the water level by using help of ultrasonic sensors. The ultrasonic sensors use the principle of "echo". When sound waves are transmitted, they after striking any obstacle return. So, by using this principle we can calculate the time of travel for outgoing as well as returning. By calculation we can calculate the distance. Here we use this concept in our project. The motor pump automatically turns ON when the water level is low. Actually there is a lot of drinking water crisis in India and also in other countries. Today we need to preserve water at any cost. In India, we can see many houses as overhead tanks and they keep on overflowing water. It wastes a lot of water as well as electricity. If we do not do anything on this matter than we can face huge scarcity of water. In this project I Am going to implement automatic water level controller so that we no longer ...

In modern technology is largely depends on automation and control system. Automation and control system refers the use of various control systems for operating equipment such as machinery, processes in factories, boilers and heat treating ovens, switching on telephone networks, steering and stabilization of ships, aircraft, automobile and other applications with minimal or reduced human intervention. The greatest advantage of automation and control system is that it saves labor. A water level indicator system is a device that indicates the level of water in a tank or reservoir. It is widely used in industrial applications such as boilers in nuclear power plants and residential applications. The project is to design water level indicator with automatic water pump controlling system. water level sensor has been made for apprehended water level properly. Micro-controller is plighted to restrain the overall system accurately that reduces the control complexity. It takes input through the sensor unit that senses the water level. After taking input , output intends the pump's action (on/off) with respect to current water status of the tank. A display unit indicates the status of pump and water level. The device also monitor the state of level of water whether it is stable, increasing or decreasing with what velocity. It also stores the total time of pump being kept ON. It also keep monitoring whether the pumping is working well or not. While Keeping the motor ON it detects whether the motor pump is working well or not every minutes. If the level is increasing or decreasing in each minutes then the indicator shows the motor pump is working well else after three minutes if the level remains stable then it shows there is a problem in motor. Thus it also monitor the working performance of the pump.

Power outage is a common phenomenon in some places in Nigeria. With a manual pumping system, a user must be involved in pump switching for water level control. This is sometimes challenging when the user is not available or busy with other activities when the power supply is restored. This can result in water shortage in tanks, wastage from overflow and energy waste operating pump when tank overflows, etc. The use of automatic water level controllers will ensure the availability of water in tanks, conserve energy by turning off the pump when the tank is full and reduces the utility bills by cutting water and electricity wastage. In this work, float switches and a solenoid valve are used to control water levels in the network of tanks comprising two overhead tanks and one ground tank. The system has been found to eliminate human existence and cut the waste of water and electricity due to overflow

This Project mainly aims at optimizing the use of water. Since water wastage has become a major and global issue now, hence water conservation has now become more important. One of the common sources of wastage we encounter is the overflow of water. This project aims to help judge the water level inside the water tank and display it accordingly on the screen while also preventing any overflow of water which is achieved through the Arduino Uno. The ultrasonic sensors used helps determine the water level in tank which is then send to the Arduino Uno, the LCD then attached to it displays the level to us. According to the level of water inside the tank, the Arduino helps turn ON or OFF the servo motor hence closing the source of water. In this way, through the automation of water control, we intent to save the energy and our natural resource.
