摘要：Automatic water pumping system is extremely required for effective usage of water resources in various areas such as irrigation for crops. In this paper, an Automatic Irrigator (AI) system which can save water wastage by controlled water pumping thus provides very high energy efficiency is presented. The system has its ability to automatically control the turning on and off of the motor, based on the water level, thus maintaining a controlled water level. The stunning feature of this system can be to provide solutions for the varying water requirements of the crops at different stages during the growth process by considering a micro-controller based approach to automatically maintain the varying levels of waters as per requirements. Also several other applications of this proposed system exists such as water level control in water tanks, maintaining ground water level, etc., thus usable for multiple applications, by making slight modifications to the system. The proposed system based on EDR201A05 makes use of only a single 5V DC supply to control, based on the conductive property of water, a motor which can pump water. The proposed system is also extremely attractive because of its simplicity, controllability, and low cost. This system can also automatically sends the pumping motors into idle state during rainy days saving power and water.
