Abstract :
In this design problem I am trying to check the water level in a tank that when it is full or empty.
Different range of values is applied for checking the level of the tank and the LEDs are glown
accordingly. The levels are indicated by different colours of LED for checking the amount of
water in the tank.

Design Problem:
Design a circuit for Indicating the Level of water in a Tank and Give a message when the tank is
almost full so that the flow of water is stopped.
Water level Indicator is a device which indicates us about the level of water inside the tank and
different LEDs indicate different level of water inside the tank.

Design:
For implementing this design problem in labview I have used a simple knob for increasing and
decreasing the value of the water in the tank.
Apply range condition for different levels of the tank and make the LED glow accordingly.

Value in the Tank

Level Indiacted

0-50

Level 1 Red LED

50-150

Level 2- Yellow LED

150-300

Level 3- Blue LED

300-480

Level 4- Green LED

480 +

Stop Water- Violet LED

Conclusion :
From the above design we can see that how a Water level Indicator can be implemented in
LabView. It uses different indicators for different Levels of tank which shows the amount of
water in the tank. We saw the use of different functions of labview and how to use the structure
in labview.

Result :
Water Level Indicator has been designed in labview and it can be implemented for further use for
daily purpose in homes or any other place. Different LED can indicate the different levels of tank
so the it will not overflow.
Further additions can be made in this by using a buzzer, Automatic Kill Switch for stopping the
flow of water automatically.
