3 Consider a task of designing an automation system for water supply for a residential colony
as shown in Figure 2. There are two tanks, an underground tank and an overhead tank. The
water from the Municipal Water Supply Authority of the city comes to the underground tank
through gravity and later it is pumped to an overhead tank using a pump-motor set.

Water is supplied to various residential units from the overhead tank based on the level in the
tank. There is an escape valve in the underground tank which operates automatically if the
underground tank becomes full, a condition which seldom occurs. In the present system, the
levels in the undergtound tank as well as the overhead tank are measured ihrough a float and
pulley sensor and the pump motors are operated manually. Similarly, the distribution valves
for water distribution to different residential units are also operated manually.

It is an ineffective contlol prone to human error and leads to wastage of water, shorter life of

intervention/supervision. A microprocessor based system is to be designed which should
perform the following functions:
o Level sensing and control of water in the overhead tank
o Level sensing of water in the underground tank
o Start and stop of pump motors for pumping water to the overhead tank from the
underground tank
o Distribution of water to the residential units as per the given time schedule
