Automated Water Pump With Dry Run Intimation Using GSM
Automated Water Pump With Dry Run Intimation Using GSM
An automated water pump system for farmers or any user needing it for filling
tanks as well as for using water supply. The system consists of a pump motor
along with LCD and GSM modem controlled by a microcontroller. The system
allows users to remotely switch on/off motor as well as the system consists of an
automated water sensing system that automatically switches off the pump motor as
soon as it senses that water supply has stopped and the motor is on a dry run.
Our system uses a GSM modem to send and receive user commands and it then
operates the pump motor based on user SMS. The system also consists of IR
sensors to detect water flow through the pipe as long as water flow is detected
through pipe the pump motor runs. As soon as the sensor detects water supply
has stopped the microcontroller is notified of the dry run condition. The system now
notifies the user that it has shut down the motor on noticing dry run condition.
