Prototype of Water Level Control System

Abstract

Global climate change and unpredictable rain circle cause uncertainty of water availability. Therefore, the technology which can increase water distribution efficiency is needed. This paper describes prototype water level control system that has an important role in providing convenience in the drainage system. If usually the water gate at the dam is operated manually, this prototype is simulation open and close automatically water gate based on rainfall levels using Arduino. To automatically control open and close the water gate, we use Ultrasonic sensors as input values. The water gate will be driven using a Servo Motor. The output of the water level status is displayed in the form of LCD display and is also followed by sound output for people with visual impairments (blind). The design results of this prototype are expected to be one of the good contributions the drainage system. With this automatic sluice of, the course will minimalize the risk from flood or another risk.
