The document contains an Arduino code for a water level monitoring system using ultrasonic sensors. It controls a relay to turn a pump on or off based on the water level in a tank, with specific distance thresholds for starting and stopping the pump. Additionally, it includes a buzzer that sounds when the tank is full.
