摘要:Thispaper is concerned about the design and implementation of a system which is used to identify and prevent water theft in urban residents and commercial establishments where drinking water is provided at a fixed rate. The proposed idea is to develop a LabVIEW based remote water monitoring and theft prevention system by recording the flow rate at the consumer end. Itconsists of a microcontroller that continuously monitors and records the flow rate of water using a flow sensor and to transmit the same to water supply board. It is also provided with a solenoid valve to supply water to the consumers. The microcontroller and driver circuit combination is used tocontrol the solenoid valve. The valve will turn on/off automatically by the central processing station PC to stop the water supply whenever the flow rate exceeds the predefined limit.Two flow sensors are used in the pipeline which supplies water to the consumer. When the rate of flow between these two flow sensors differs, the solenoid valve closes automatically and the water theft is indicated to the PC present at the water supply board. The address of the consumer will bedisplayed in the PC with penalty for theft. Thus water theft can be identified and prevented, enhancing equal share of water to the public
