Abstract
: An automatic control suitable for process level sensing and control was realized using the Ultrasonic sensor. This enabled the entire circuit to function as a threshold detector; thereby working as an ON and OFF switch. The proposed process level sensor was tested in real time application by using it to control the level of water in a tank fed by a single phase 1/2HP pump. Experimental performance results indicated that the device is quite suitable for the desired operation, since it maintained the set maximum and minimum levels of 100 litres and 10 litres respectively, by switching the pump on or off as required.
