A small blog to understand the usage of transistor through its simple applications. Created by Ajin.P.A. and Abhi Harshan for Science Fest in St. Joseph's H.S.S. Pavaratty.
Water Level Indicater
Connect the metal pins on the water tank as one at the bottom, one at the minimum level , one at maximum level and last one at the point at which the water will overflow.
Pin A is connected to +ve of battery.3 LED are showing the amount of water in the tank
The red LED(low) will be always on.
The fact is that the water is a conductor. If the level of water is between C and B, +ve charge from A will pass through B. In this way the base of t2 gets +ve charge and t2 turn on.this will turn on green led.
When the water reaches B t2 turns on and Orange LED glows.
If Water level is lower than B the t3 turn on and the siren for low water level makes sound.
If water reaches D then the t4 switches the siren for high water level.
This will be very useful to every houses.
