Design and Build a Water Pump Protection Tool Using IOT (Internet Of Things) Based Water Flow Sensor

Abstract

Water is often taken with the help of a pump to remove water from the well to be filled into the reservoir.

However, often during the dry season, many pumping machines are damaged because the pump is on but the

water in the well (source) is empty and no one knows it, so the pump engine does not turn off, therefore it can

cause the pump to fail. be damaged. This study designed a system that can monitor the flow of water using the

Blynk application. Monitoring is carried out using a smartphone with a NodeMCU ESP8266 microcontroller

connected to the internet network. The sensor used is a water flow sensor to detect the flow of water. The Blynk

application is used by the user as a data display for the NodeMCU ESP8266 microcontroller which is integrated

into the internet network. The results of the research water flow sensor has worked well on the water pump.

After testing the distance, the distance is detected indefinitely provided that the microcontroller and the blynk

application are connected to the internet network, and do not experience internet network trouble.
