OVERVIEW
Water Pump Controller is a device connected to water sensitive sensory, in order to operate 2 different water pumps. The purpose of this device is to start the pump when the tank is half-empty.
The sensor capable to detect whether the tank on full and half-empty. It has options to kick single pump for power saving, or double pumps for faster water flow.
TECHNICAL DESIGN
The device uses AT8051 microcontroller and several digital ICs for handling any programmable input. The 5V digital devices are connected to opto-coupler and magnetic relays for handling 220V pumps.
