The sensors are lengths of non-corrosive metal which hang down into the tank. When the water level reaches the bottom of the metal, a small current flows through the water, and this current is detected by the circuitry connected to the metal.

This is a very poor way to detect water level, for MANY reasons. If possible you should use a FLOAT SWITCH (Google it).

I've seen this diagram many times before. My guess is it's a school assignment. If so, his prof isn't going to accept float switches. ;)

That exact picture is actually ripped from an article found in the February 2007 issue of ElectronisForYou magazine... The article describes, documents and outlines the sensor circuit used... So I'm a little confused by the OP's question, in that, if they have the picture they should also have the rest of the article, unless as you stated a lazy teacher ripped the image and made it an assignment...

Ha, there are no lazy teachers. Just ask them they'll tell ya so. Oops, I forgot about those hard working, under paid, union folks in Chicago. :rolleyes:

Raushan, did you get stuck in the space-time continuum? Your first and last post on this topic, until now, was on 09-11-2012. Glad to see that you got the flux capactitors recharged. I hear they can be tricky. :rolleyes:

Dear Sir,
Sorry for my discontinuity I was little struck with my M.Tech curriculum and starting an electronics project center http://spectrumpondicherry.blogspot.in/ in India.....Please help us with the latest circuits.......
