Automated Pump Control

Aim

The aim of the project is to Control pumps based on liquid levels

Problem statement

The system should intelligently control the operation of pumps, optimizing their performance based on real-time data. The goal is to create an efficient and responsive pump control solution that ensures optimal water distribution, minimizes energy consumption, and adapts to varying demand, contributing to improved resource management and sustainability.

Material used

Input: Water level Sensor
Brain: TinkerSpace Brain Board
Output: Water Pump
Battery: 5V Lithium-ion rechargeable battery

Component description
Water Level Sensor

The function of the Water Level Sensor to measure the level of water

Transistor switch + Water Pump

 Water pump is used to pump the water and fill the water tank

TinkerSpace Brain Board

TinkerSpace board acts as brain of this project, its function is to monitor water level sensor and control the water pump

Battery

5V Lithium-Ion battery is used to power-up this project

Working description

Case 1: When the  water level  is low,  water level sensor (25%) turns ON and sends the signal to brain board. The brain board  turns on the water pump.

Case 2: When the  water level  is full, water level sensor (100%) turns OFF and sends the signal to brain board. The brain board  turns off the water pump.

 

Circuit Design (DesignSpace)

Step 1: Connect WATER LEVEL SENSOR  to  input 1

Step 2: Connect  TRANSISTOR SWITCH( with WATER PUMP) to output 1 

Step 3: Connect supply and test project.
