This project explains how to build a fully automatic ultrasonic water level controller where the water pump motor starts automatically when the tank level goes below a preset LOW level and stops automatically when the tank becomes FULL. The whole system is wireless, reliable, and there are no corrosion problems because the ultrasonic sensor never […]

GSM Pump Motor Controller Circuit using Arduino
In this post I will show how to construct a farmer friendly GSM pump motor controller circuit which couldturn on and off the irrigation system remotely from anywhere in the world via cellphone SMS and return you with an acknowledgement message. The idea was requested by Mr. PG Ragavandir. The Design Agriculture is one of […]
How to Use IC LM393 as a Current Controller Circuit
In this post we will understand a current controller and current limiter circuit using the IC LM393 comparator. This circuit is using a low power voltage comparator integrated circuit LM393 and one power Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor, so the idea is simple but the working looks a little deep when we see it […]
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. […]
5 Simple Water Level Controller Circuits
An automatic water level controller is a device which senses undesired low and high water levels in a tank, and switches a water pump ON or OFF accordingly to maintain an optimal water content in the tank. In this article I have explained 5 simple automatic water level controller circuits which can be used for […]
SMS Based Pump Controller with Automatic Dry Run Shut Off
In this post I will show how to construct a SMS based water pump controller with automatic shutdown of pump when no water flow through the pump is detected. We will also construct another much simpler automatic dry run preventer circuit without GSM in the next half of the article. What is Dry Run in […]
