Study on automatic water level detection process using ultrasonic sensor

Abstract

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.
