This project is a NodeMCU based Water Level Monitoring and Automatic Pump Control System designed to monitor the water level inside a tank using an ultrasonic sensor, display the water level using an LED bar graph through the PCA9555D I2C I/O expander, and automatically control a water pump based on the tank level.

The system continuously measures the distance between the ultrasonic sensor and the water surface, converts the reading into a percentage value, and updates the LED graph accordingly.

Water Level Monitor and Control: common questions

What microcontroller does the Water Level Monitor and Control use?

The Water Level Monitor and Control is built around the ESP32-WROOM, from the ESP32 family.

How big is the Water Level Monitor and Control PCB?

The Water Level Monitor and Control measures 88.6 × 88.7 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Water Level Monitor and Control?

51 components, from 41 distinct parts, with part numbers taken from the project's own BOM. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Water Level Monitor and Control design files?

From the jsitech4/Projects repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout, the schematic and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Water Level Monitor and Control design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with jsitech4. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the Water Level Monitor and Control without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug ESP32 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
