Automated Water Flow Control System in Overhead Tanks Using Internet of Things and Mobile Application

Abstract

Basically, automation in systems would help to reduce wastage of precious natural resources in various ways, wherein prevention of wastage of water resource to control the water tanks from overflow is crucial. In this automated world, the handling of any kind of devices with comfort is made to be the easiest factor everywhere. However, the overflow and underflow sensors and mobile application should be reliable so that the consumer can rely on this system. Automated water flow control system in overhead tanks using Internet of Things and mobile application uses reliable sensors and mobile application. The application is developed after testing various sensors and finding the best basing on the cost and work efficiency. The mobile application includes features that are not existing such as automated control of tank based on water level selected by user. For this case, three levels are proposed minimum, medium, high. The consumer can change his preference any time. This reduces the water stagnancy for long time. Hence, the proposed methodology has advantages over existing system in saving more water.
