ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

Its a matter of great pleasure for us, to get this

opportunity of expressing our deep and sincere of gratitude to
all our professors and concerned faculties specially, DR. A.H.
RAVAL (H.O.D. OFPHYSICS).

With

the

help

of

their

continuous

inspiration,

guidance and generous support, we were able to successfully

prepare this project t and of course, without their continuous
help and support we wouldnt have been able to complete this
project in given time.

We would also specially like to thank Prof. V. G.

PARMARSIR, Prof. V. C. SHIKHALIYASIR and DR. P.
VACHHANISIR who always helped us to solve many of our
queries and problems whenever required.

Finally, I am thankful to our loving parents for their

valuable cooperation during the academic year.

Only the token of thanks cannot appreciate the

valuable contribution and assistance by these wonderful
people, but these token of thanks gesture is a least that we
can do.

 INTRODUCTION

Here in this project we show that how use sensor to control

the working of the pump is controlled by the water level of
the source tank, if the main tank is empty then pump gets
automatically on and when it is fully filled then pumps get
automatically off. But even when there is on weter in the
source the pump totally depends upon both, the source as well
as main tank.

The water level of the overhead tank should be monitored

using sensors and when water level drops below the resold
level the water pump should be turned on. When the level of
water is above a predefined level the pump should be turned
off.

When the pump is turned on the water level in the ground

tank should is monitored. If that level drops a below a
defined value the pump should be turned off.
A user should be able to disable the whole automatic system
and switch on or off the pump manually.

In the manual mode the water level in both tanks should

displayed so that the user can operate the motor by observing
the indications of the display.

 RESISTOR

It may be defined as the property of a substance due to

which it opposes the flow of electricity through it metals acids
and salts are good conductor of electricity. Amongst pure
metals silver copper and aluminum are very good conductor in
given order.

12

This as discussed earlier is due to the presence of a large

number of free or loosely attached electrons in their atoms.
These vagrant electrons assume a directed motion on the
application of an electric potential difference. These electrons
while following pass through the molecules or the atom of
conductor collide and other atoms and electrons thereby
produced heat.

13

 THE UNIT OF RESISTER

The practical unit of resistance is Ohm. A conductor is

said to have resistance of one ohm if it permits one ampere
current to flow through it when one volt is impressed across its
terminals.
The current through a resistor is in direct proportion to
the

voltage across the resistors terminals, the

relationship is represented by Ohms low:I = V/R

Where I is the current through the conductor in units of
amperes V is the potential d
For insulters whose resistance are very high a much
bigger unit is used i.e. mega-ohm=10 6 ohm.

 LAWS OF RESISTER

Ohms

low

Main article: Ohms law

The behavior of an idle resistor is dilated by thy
relationship specified by ohms law:

V = I.R

Ohms law states that voltage (V) across a resistor is

proportional to the current (I), Where (I), where the
constant of proportionality is the resistance (R)

The resistances are offered by a conductor depends on the

following factor...
1) It varies its length L.
2) It varies as the cross section A of conductor.
3) It depends on the nature of materials.
4) It also depends on the temperature of conductor.
Hence specific resistance of material may be defined as
THE RESISTANCE BEETWEEN THE OPPOSITE FORCE OF
A METERIAL CUBE OF THAT METERIAL

 CAPACITORS
* Definition
A Capacitor is an electronic device that is used to store
electrical energy. They are only used to store the electrons and
they are not capable of producing them.
Working of a Capacitor
A Capacitor consists of two metal plates which are separated
by a non-Conducting substance or dielectric. Take a look at the
figure given below to know about dielectric in a Capacitor.
Thorough any non -conducing substance can be used as a
dielectric, practically some special materials like porcelain,
Mylar, Teflon, Mica, Cellulose and so on. A Capacitor is
defined by the type of dielectric selected. It also defines the
application of the capacitor. According to the size and type of
dielectric used, the capacitor can be used for high voltage as
well as low-Voltage applications. For applications in radio
tuning circuits air is commonly used as the electric. For
applications in timer circuits Mylar is used as the dielectric.
For high voltage applications glass is normally used. For
application in X-ray and MRI machines, Ceramic is mostly
preferred. The metal plates are separated by a distance d,
and a dielectric constant of the dielectric material is placed inbetween the plates. The dielectric constant of the dielectric
material=e0e..e0 is the dielectric of air.
The dielectric material is the main substance that helps in
storing the electrical energy.

 UNIT

OF CAPACITOR

Farad:The capacitance of a capacitor is measured in units

called Farads. A Capacitance is said to have 1 Farad
of capacitance when the capacitor can hold 1ampsecind of electrons at 1volt at a rate of electron flow
of 1coulomb of electrons per second. As 1 Farad is a
big value, the Capacitors are usually denoted in
micro farads.

 GENERAL

DESCRIPTION

The IC 7400 UBC hex buffers are monolithic complementary MOS

(COMS)
integrated circuits Constructed with N- and p- channel
enhancement mode transistors. These devices feature logic level
conversion using only one supply voltage (VDD) .The input signal
high level (VIH) can exceed the VDD supply voltage when these
devices are used for logic level conversions. The eservices are
intended for use as hex buffers,
CMOS to DTID/TTL Converters, or as CMOS current drivers, and at
VDD=5.0, they can drive directly two DTL/TTL loads over the full
operating temperature range.

20

 FEATURES

Wind supply Voltage range :3.0V to 15V

Direct drive to 2 TTL loads at 5.0V over full
temperature

Range
High source and sink current capability
Special input protection permits input
voltages greater

Than VDD

21

 APPLICATIONS

COMS hex inverter/duffer

CMOS to DIL/TTL hex converter
CMOS Current sink or source driver
CMOS HIGH to LOW logic level converter

 TRANSISTOR

A transistor is a semiconductor device used to

amplify and switch electronic signals and electrical
power. It is composed of semiconductor material with
at least three terminals for connection to an external
circuit. A voltage or current applied to one pair of the
transistors terminals changes the current flowing thro
ugh another pair of terminals. Because the controlled
(output) power can be higher than the controlling
(input) power, s transistor can amplify a signal.
Today, some transistors are packaged individually, but
many more are found embedded in integrated circuits.

23

 TRANSFORMER

230V ac is converted to 12V ac by transformer and this ac

current is converted to dc by diode.

24

 RELAY

25

 RELAY:
A relay is an electrically operated switch. Many relays use
an electromagnet to operate a switching mechanism
mechanically, but other operating principles are also used.
Relays are used where it is necessary to control a circuit
by a low- power signal, or where several circuits must be
controlled by one signal. Relays were used extensively in
telephone exchanges and early computers to perform
logical operations.

A type of relay that can handle the high power required to

directly control an electric motor or other loads is called a
contractor. Solid-state relays control power circuits with
no moving parts, instead using a semiconductor device to
perform switching. Relays with calibrated operating
characteristics and sometimes multiple operating coils are
used to protect electrical circuits form overload or faults;
in modern electric power systems these functions are
performed by digital instruments still called protective
relays .

 APPLICATION

This is an effective system for knowing the level of water in

the tank.

This project can also be successfully implemented in minor

and major projects for knowing the level of water. Instead of
employing electric probes for knowing the level of water we
can also use the signaling method.

The level of water is known by the time taken by the signals

to come back.

 CONCLUSION

I would like to conclude this project as a very great and enriching

experience.

During the project labs I familiarized myself with P.C.B designing

application of I.C.(its pin diagram), mounting of components
using soldering process and interfacing of the hardware circuit
with the computer.

The circuit can be used at all places starting from domestic to the
industrial sectors. The simplicity in the usage of this circuit helps
it to be used by a large number of people as people with less
knowledge of hardware can also use it without facing any
problem.

I also learned about the ELECTRONICS, Responsibility and

about their hard work. This project was not only in tams of
imparting practical knowledge.

Thus I conclude our project with a very nice and wonderful

experience.
