Oil Tank Sensor Arduino

Oil tank level control.

Oil tank sensor arduino.

We hope you found this project useful. Features of this system. I m also programming it in assembly using an atmel tiny2313 chip. Range up to 250 cm ground distance also height of the tank.

From time to time it may be necessary to remove the ultrasonic sensor for cleaning. With the ultrasound solution i referred to earlier there is a unit in the uk that has the sensor tx link and receiver for around 50 called a watchman designed for monitoring the level of oil tanks. As the tank empties the float drops and slides a moving contact along the resistor increasing its resistance 2 in addition. The sensing unit usually uses a float connected to a potentiometer typically printed ink design in a modern automobile.

Now your lcd screen or serial console should be showing the water level. Measure fuel level with arduino. This sensor is designed to fit a standard american 225 gallon heating oil tank. What i m doing to compensate for the 25cm is to use a pipe above the oil tank input so the sensor sits higher above the tank.

Liquid level sensor detects the level of the liquid from a ground level. Works with any liquid water oil etc. Leave a comment below if you have any doubts or queries. Arduino robot w gopro and fpv iphone control via bluetooth.

For example oil may splash on it when the tank is filled. Finally we have completed the water level sensor arduino tutorial. Turns on the motor requires motor driver amplifier below a given value and turns off it above a given value after filling the liquid. It should work with any other tank having an available 2 threaded port on the top.
