Wireless Water Management System

Project Title

Wireless Water Management System

Project Area of Specialization Electrical/Electronic EngineeringProject Summary

Clean potable water is a precious commodity. Throughout the world it is being tried to conserve drinking water and minmize its wastage. In Pakistan it is seen that alot of clean water is wasted either in the underground tank that stores the water from the mains or in the roof top (overhead) tank due to its frequent overflow.

Wireless water management system is an automated fully organised controlled water filling system for one unit houses without any human intervention that could ensure and safeguard against the water wastage both for the underground and the overhead tanks.

Both underground and over head tanks could be filled without being overflowed using the proposed project. It will reduce work load, shall  increase productivity and ensure loss of precious resources like clean water.

The most significant aspect of this project is that it has been proposed in a modular format to ensure its direct marketability in future. It has been designed and developoed in such a manner that it could easily be converted into a marktable industrial product in future.

Project Objectives

Basic aim of this project is to conserve energy and preserve precious resources . The project is made to solve the water management issue that causes the excessive loss of water, loss , loss of electricity and humman productivity.

This project addresses the issue by automating the whole process of water management wirelessly in a cost effective manner.

Project Implementation Method

 It begins with a wireless transmission medium which is controlled  by TX and RX module with Encoder and Decoder IC's. The control logic is created using Arduino which passes the signal to 4 Channel Relay Module that control the power loads comprising of motors and solonoid valves. .

Benefits of the Project

1. Efficient Management of water.
2. Protects heavy load equipments like motors etc.
3. Saves electricity.
4. Complete Wireless Control logic. 
5. Cost effective. 
6. Time efficient. 

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

The device will be implemented in a One Unit (two storied ground plus one) House.
Pressure Sensors are placed inside main line water pipe for checking the water pressure. This signal depending upon the condition whether water is with a certain pressure or not is sent to arduino for taking appropriate decision whether to start the overhead tank filling motor or not. 
Flap/Float Sensors placed inside a tank. Near the float sensors TX module is located. RX module placed near the motor and arduino placed with this  RX module. It could be realised that no physical connection required between RX and TX.  Thus saves wire cost and enhances reliability of the proposed system. 

The most innovative aspect of the project is that the entire control system would not be needing any  wired connectivity rather a wireless communication system for the control module has been proposed.
