Oil tank level control.
Oil tank sensor arduino.
Turns on the motor requires motor driver amplifier below a given value and turns off it above a given value after filling the liquid.
Finally we have completed the water level sensor arduino tutorial.
Fuel tank level gauging.
Arduino robot w gopro and fpv iphone control via bluetooth.
For example oil may splash on it when the tank is filled.
This sensor is designed to fit a standard american 225 gallon heating oil tank.
Measure fuel level with arduino.
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.
We hope you found this project useful.
Leave a comment below if you have any doubts or queries.
7 tank projects arduino robot with gopro camera and fpv function controlled from iphone via bluetooth or obstacle avoidance with ultrasonic sensor.
I m building one but it s a couple of projects down the road but i just ordered the waterproof sensor.
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.
It should work with any other tank having an available 2 threaded port on the top.
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.
As the tank empties the float drops and slides a moving contact along the resistor increasing its resistance 2 in addition.
Works with any liquid water oil etc.
Now your lcd screen or serial console should be showing the water level.
I m also programming it in assembly using an atmel tiny2313 chip.
