IOT BASED WATER TURBIDITY INDICATING SYSTEM

The IoT-Based Water Turbidity Monitoring System is designed to measure and display water turbidity levels using a turbidity sensor module. The system employs the robust ATmega328P microcontroller, known for its reliability and versatility, to gather data and drive the functionalities of the project. With the integration of an ESP8266 module, the system leverages Wi-Fi connectivity to upload real-time turbidity data to the ThingSpeak cloud platform. This data is then readily accessible through an internet-enabled device, providing users with the ability to monitor water quality remotely.

By combining cutting-edge technology and intuitive design, This system provides a comprehensive solution for monitoring water turbidity levels in real-time, enabling remote access and visualization from anywhere. This project, powered by an ATmega328P microcontroller, integrates a turbidity sensor module (SKU: 62828), ESP8266 module, ThingSpeak cloud platform, and an LCD screen, making it a versatile tool for both personal and professional applications.

What is Turbidity?

Turbidity is the cloudiness or haziness of a fluid caused by large numbers of individual particles that are generally invisible to the naked eye, similar to smoke in the air. The measurement of turbidity is a key test of water quality.

Turbidity is caused by particles suspended or dissolved in water that scatter light making the water appear cloudy or murky. Particulate matter can include sediment, especially clay and silt, fine organic and inorganic matter, soluble colored organic compounds, algae, and other microscopic organisms.

Component Used:

1. ATMEL IC ATMEGA328-PU
2. Turbidity Sensor SKU: 62828
3. ESP8266 – 01 WIFI MODULE
4. 16*2 LCD Display
5. 7805 Voltage Regulator IC
6. Diode IN4007
7. Electrolytic Capacitor (100uF 25V, 100uf 16V)
8. Ceramic Capacitor (22pf)
9. Crystal 16Mhz
10.  Voltage Regulator IC lm317
11. Preset Potentiometer 10kohm

Connect the component as per given diagram.

Make power supply of 5V and 3.3V.

Use IC 7805 for 5V DC power supply and lm317 for 3.3V DC power supply.

Note: Instead of using transformer in 5V dc supply I have directly given 12V DC to it. You can use transformer also.

Input given to the 3.3V power supply is also 12V.
