This is a water sensor circuit design using based on a Conductive Liquid Level Sensor, this single chip circuit is very compact and simple. This circuit is an ac excited fluid level sensor, which uses alternating current to provide biasing for the sensor probe to avoid electrolysis of the probes. This ac excitation makes the sensing probe has long

er lifetime. This circuit can be useful for wide range of water or liquid level sensing and control such as radiators, beverage dispensers, washing machines, water softeners, irrigation, reservoirs, boilers, aquarium, or sump pumps Many type of fluids are electrically conductive and can be detected using this liquid level sensor circuit: city water/ground water, sea water, chopper sulfate solution, weak acid, weak base, household ammonia, water and glycol mixture, wet soil, coffee, or fruit juices. Remember that most of fuel doesn`t conduct electricity, so this circuit can be employed as fuel level sensor/detector. This is the figure of the circuit. If we look at its data sheet, this water level sensor circuit chip is best at 10-24 volt supply voltage. The absolute maximum voltage supply for this liquid level sensor chip is 28V, but remembers to always try to avoid this extreme condition to prevent damaging the chip. In the first circuit, a basic low level warning application uses a LED to indicate the water level falls below the sensor. You can see the filter pin (9) is not connected, this means that the LED is actually blinking at sound frequency, but it`s fine since our eye response is slow enough to notice such high speed blinking. Since without filter capacitor at pin 9 the output give a square wave signal, you can easily replace the led with loud speaker as shown in the second circuit to give audio indication. If you...
This project fits more for custom made battery casing that can have more space to hide things inside. This switch with few alterations can be used for any other project as well but is designed based on e-bike needs! This project use a clever functionality of....
The circuit described here uses ultrasonic oscillations and operates based on the propagation velocity of these oscillations in the air. Thus, we can easily determine the distance of two points if the time within which the wave travels this distance is....
Sometimes the precious metals are hidden too deep and are not detected except with complicated devices. In many cases, however, small pieces of precious metal buried near the surface can be detected by relatively simple means. Everyone is very attractive to....
Many times for various reasons we forget or can not water the plants that we have in our homes. And many humidity sensors units just notify us with a beeping sound or with a flashing light, that the pot needs watering. But what if we are away from home? This....
The principle behind a metal detector is really very simple. Proof of this is the circuit that follows, in which it proves that the construction of a metal detector can be done in the minute, with few components that we find very easily everywhere. With the....
The sub-harmonic bass generator is a sound producing unit for guitars. The sound it produces looks very much like that of the bass guitar. The octave generator is sometimes quite unusual since it does not produce any of the usual ways of coloring the sound,....
In the past the sounding (sea bottom measurement) was done with the "bullet", that is, with a heavy lead object that the seamen plucked into the sea hung from a calibrated rope. As soon as the "bullet" reached the bottom, the depth appeared directly from the....
This Amplifier was designed to have the following specifications: Distortion less than 0.1% at full power of 100W even at 20KHz. Power has to be attributed to an extended bandwidth. The output transistors must be protected against short circuits. The power....
A series of LEDs serve to alert the gardener when plants need water. Using two conventional digital integrated LEDs and a series of LEDs, we make a very useful device for gardening. The device detects the amount of water in the pot and alerts the grower.....
