Abstract : Water is the most

important Natures gift to the mankind
.water scarcity is now a big issue
which need to be solved. The paper
describes the web based service to
monitor water flow level in various
applications using the level sensor
with the microcontroller and an effort
is made to design a circuit using water
level indicators which can control the
storage level of water in a tank to
provide water throughout the day
without any wastage. The design
involves the use of port forwarding
facility of broadband modem or router
by using which one can port forward a

local IP address to a public IP address

that helps in controlling appliances
from any part of the
I.INTRODUCTION:
Generally switch ON the pump when
the tank becomes empty and switch
OFF the pump when the overhead tank
starts overflowing. This results in the
unnecessary wastage and sometimes
non availability of water in case of
emergency. Here a circuit is designed
which can make this system
automatic, i.e. it switches ON the
pump when the water level in the tank
goes low and switches it OFF as soon

as the water level reaches a predetermined level.Above is the

flowchart which depicts the system(fig

The sensor checks if the tank is empty
or not andswitches on the pump if its
empty. The sensor checks the level of
water nd displays accordingly to it.
The pump is switched off after the
predetermined level. It employs a

level in a tank or any other container

by switching it ON/OFF the motor
automatically when needed. The level
sensing is done by sensors which are
placed at different levels on the tank
wall. Hence this controller is one of the
cheapest & fastest way of controlling
water level.A web service is a network

built using standard internet
technologies. The web page is shown
in fig2. It shows the graphical image of
tank. Its powerful new way to built
software systems from distributed
components. Depending upon water
level in the tank, a graphical image of
the water tank is displayed on the
main Web page. Here, the uniqueness
is that the information is displayed as
an image instead of data on the Web
page. The water-level data is updated
and displayed as a visual which is

refreshed using AJAX in the HTML

code.
II.WATER LEVEL CONTROLLER:
Water level controller circuit which
controls the pump automatically
through web. Automatic water level
controller switches ON the motor when
the water level in the overhead tank
drops below a pre fixed level (ON
point) and switches OFF the motor
when the water level rises to another
pre fixed level (OFF point). There are
four sensors attached to the tank
which sense the water level and shows
the graphical image and status of the

water tank on the web page. Circuit

This design is very useful if

incorporated in municipal corporation
or government organizations which
supply water as they can continuously
monitor the water level sitting at any
place away from the actual place of
water supplying through web page.
Through this design multiple tanks can
be controlled. Fig4 shows the expected
control of tanks.

III.Conclusion:
Water is one of the most important
basic needs for all living beings. But
unfortunately a huge amount of water
is being wasted by uncontrolled use.
Some other automated water level
monitoring system is also offered so
far but most of the method has some
shortness in practice. We tried to
overcome these problems

and implemented an efficient

automated water level monitoring and
controlling system. Main intension of
this research work is to establish a
flexible, economical and easy
configurable system which can solve
water losing problems. This design can
help monitor water level from any part
of he world which is the most unique
feature.
