For multi-storey buildings where water tanks could be at considerable heights over building terraces, monitoring the levels automatically could become a major issue. RF remote control modules have become pretty cheap nowadays which could be effectively used for solving the inconvenience. I have explained how to make and install a wireless water level controller circuit […]

Float Switch Controlled Water Level Controller Circuit
The post narrates a simple water level controller circuit using a float switch mechanism. The idea was requested by Mr. tpraveenraj. Technical Specifications I’m a electronic hobbyist from software field. So I try with the things in the weekend. I saw your blog recently and really admired to test this circuit, and when I went […]
Programmable Humidity Controller Circuit
The simple programmable humidity sensor circuit I have explained in this article can be used for controlling or maintaining a suitable level of humidity inside a close premise. The circuit could be used in poultry farms or similar areas where humidity level becomes crucial for keeping the animals healthy. The idea was requested by Mr. […]
Simple Automatic Plant Watering Circuit for Monitoring Soil Moisture
This automatic plant watering circuit can be used for automatically sensing soil humidity and triggering a water pump when the ground gets parched below a predetermined level (adjustable). Circuit Operation The circuit is rather straightforward and uses a single IC 555 as the main active component.Referring to the automatic plant irrigation circuit shown below we […]
Safety Buoy Switch Circuit for Human Powered Submarine
In this post I have explained a safety mechanism circuit which can be used in human powered submarines for safeguarding the diver during emergency situations. The idea was requested by Mr. Marielle. Technical Specifications For a (voluntary) project of the TU Delft in the Netherlands, we are building a human powered submarine. In this submarine we need a […]
Control Two Submersible Pumps Alternately
In this post I have explained a simple water level controller circuit applicable for automatic toggling of two submersible water pumps alternately in response to a predetermined water level switching. The entire circuit is built using just a single IC and a few other passive parts. The idea was requested by one of the interested members of […]
