The Water Level Sensor Depth of Detection is a water sensor designed for Arduino projects. It operates at a voltage range of DC3-5V with a low operating current of less than 20mA. This sensor utilizes analog output signals based on water pressure to detect water levels, with a detection area measuring 40x16mm.
This water level sensor offers a user-friendly and cost-effective solution for recognizing high water levels or water drops. It achieves this by utilizing a series of exposed parallel wire traces that measure droplets or water volume, enabling accurate water level determination. The sensor simplifies the conversion of water levels into analog signals, allowing direct reading on an Arduino development board. This facilitates the creation of level alarm effects in your projects.
The Water Level Sensor is an efficient and reliable tool for monitoring and detecting water levels in various applications. Its easy-to-use design and compatibility with Arduino boards make it accessible for beginners and experienced users alike. With this sensor, you can effortlessly incorporate water level sensing into your projects, enabling timely and accurate monitoring of water levels.
