Water Level Detection System Based on Ultrasonic Sensors HC-SR04 and ESP8266-12 Modules with Telegram and Buzzer Communication Media

Abstract

Detection of water surface altitude is an indicator for early detection of flood disasters. The research aims to design a water surface-level detection system by using ultrasonic sensors and the ESP8266-12E module. The tools and materials used during the design are: Ultrasonic sensors HC-SR04, module ESP8266-12E, and buzzer a water container with a varied water height, the detection data will be sent to the ESP8266-12E module, then the system will send the information an output to sound the alarm. The ultrasonic HC-SR04 sensor will detect the mation in the form of a message through telegram and buzzer application. The messages delivered are several stages including standby, alert, and danger. The methods used in this design are planning, study libraries, collection of tools and materials, hardware plan, and program creation on the software. The final result is a system capable of detecting water surface level based on the ultrasonic sensor HC-SR04 and the ESP8266-12E module through telegram and buzzer communication media.
