Arduino Oil Tank Level Sensor

The ping sensor measures distance using sonar.

Arduino oil tank level sensor.

The sensing unit usually uses a float connected to a potentiometer typically printed ink design in a modern automobile. 2 i put const int area1 10000 for my 1 tone square tank and i got the results i need. My tank looks like the one in the photo. If you have a fuel or water tank that is either metal or colored plastic you may have run into the same problem i had.

Support this channel on patreon. A beep sound is generated when the level in the sump tank is low or if there is any fault with the sensors. Finally we have completed the water level sensor arduino tutorial. Leave a comment below if you have any doubts or queries.

Measure fuel level with arduino. How do you know when it s empty. 1 correct me if i am wrong but i should place the sensor 20cm above my tank maximum level. Download circuit diagram and programming.

Fuel tank level gauging. Just solved 3 the sensor must be very well placed above the water or ground if you are testing. Now your lcd screen or serial console should be showing the water level. We hope you found this project useful.

If the level in side the sump tank is low the motor will not be switched on and this protects the motor from dry running. As the tank empties the float drops and slides a moving contact along the resistor increasing its resistance 2 in addition. An ultrasonic well above human hearing pulse is transmitted from the unit and distance to target is determined by measuring the time required for the echo return.
