Overflow Indicator

This simple circuit can monitor the overflow of water from the overhead tank. The sensor placed close to the lid of the overhead tank continuously monitors the presence of water.

The described circuit functions as a water overflow monitoring system for overhead tanks, utilizing a water level sensor to detect the presence of water at a predefined level. The circuit typically includes a water level sensor, a microcontroller or comparator circuit, and an alert mechanism such as a buzzer or LED indicator.

The water level sensor, often a float switch or capacitive sensor, is installed near the top of the tank. When water reaches the sensor's threshold level, it triggers a signal to the microcontroller. The microcontroller processes this input and activates the alert mechanism, notifying users of the overflow condition.

In a typical implementation, the circuit may also incorporate a relay module that can control a valve or pump to prevent overflow by stopping water inflow. Power supply considerations are crucial; the circuit may operate on a low voltage DC source, ensuring safety and efficiency.

Additional features may include a manual reset button, a display for indicating water levels, and a wireless module for remote monitoring. Overall, this circuit provides an effective solution for managing water levels in overhead tanks, preventing overflow and potential damage.This Simple circuit can monitor overflow of water from the Overhead tank.
