Water Pump Controller Using Arduino
The circuit diagram of the water level controller using arduino is shown above.
Water pump controller using arduino. How to program for arduino to turn pump on off. The regulator 7812 stabilizes the dc voltage to 12v while the variable resistor pot hg. Using an arduino a scavenged wall wart and a peristaltic pump you can set up your plant to be watered as often as you like from a jug or any other vessel. The detail instruction code wiring diagram video tutorial line by line code explanation are provided to help you quickly get started with arduino.
Conductive method is used to measure the level. Arduino is working on 5 volt logic so we can t directly control the submersible pump so we are using 12 volt relay to control the pump relay is triggered by using a transistor bc547. This arduino pump tutorial shows a simple example of how to use a float switch and robotgeek pumping station to refill a reservoir. Circuit diagram and explanation.
The sensor assembly consists of four aluminum wires arranged at 1 4 1 2 3 4 and full levels in the tank. To be as accessible to as many people as possible this tutorial can be done without soldering. This unit comprises of the transformer bridge rectifier filtering capacitor and a voltage regulator in this work a 5volts and 12volts dc was used hence the need to use dual voltage source. Taking control of your plants growing process.
As shown in the water level controller circuit given below ultrasonic sensor module s trigger and echo pins are directly connected to pin 10 and 11 of arduino a 16x2 lcd is connected with arduino in 4 bit mode control pin rs rw and en are directly connected to arduino pin 7 gnd and 6. Shows bock diagram of arduino based water level display and automatic pump control system power unit.
