ABSTRACT
Water Reservoir monitor and Pump Station Control
using mobile Automation System (WRMPCS) exploits the electrical conductivity
ofwater to give indication ofreservoir levels and ultimately, the automatic
control of the water pump by the (GSM modem. The WRMPCS employs a number
ofmetallic conductors or probes, each positioned at separate levels along its
encasement to act as sensors in the reservoir. These sensors monitor the
presence of water at the probes level points (utilizing the conductivity of
ionized water due to its impurities) and give out corresponding voltage outputs
which are used by the bilateral switch to drive visual display LEDs that
indicate various water levels in the tank. When the water goes below the preset
minimum level beyond the lowest probe level point, a call alert will be sent to
the chief supervisor notifying him that the reservoir is empty and needs
refilling. The chiefsupervisor can decide to call back or not, putting the
system on hold. WRMPCS will be expected to turn the water pump ON, or call
reception and OFF i when the reservoir tank is full as designed. The system
will help to eliminate the cost and inefficiency of human interference
associated with monitoring and controlling the pump while maximizing the
performance and life span of the electric water pump, using locally available
components
