Overview

This project proposed a system that can observe the water level and water temperature for the fish farming industries. In this project, the fish pond is used as the prototype to observe the output in term of water level and temperature. This prototype detector consists of several components such as Arduino Uno Atmega328p, float switch, water pump, buzzer and etc. The observed output parameters are water level and temperature.


Methodology

Water Level and Temperature Detector for fish pond will maintain the water level and the temperature of water. The project starts with an empty pond until the suitable water level for pond is reached while controlling water temperature in the pond. The float switch is used to control and maintain the water. This project also can detect the temperature of the pond by using temperature sensor (DS18B20) by Arduino circuit. The buzzer will sound once the temperature exceeds the limits.


Prototype & Results

(a) Water level= 25%,   LED : ON

     (b) Water level= 50%,   LED 1 & 2 : ON


(c) Water level= 75%,   LED 1,2 & 3 : ON

(d) Water level= 100%,   ALL LED : ON
