Alarm unit for limit switches or flow switches

Have you ever faced the frustration of dealing with an overflowing tank or a pump running dry? These unexpected events can result in costly damage and inconvenience. A reliable floater switch alarm system can provide early warnings, allowing you to take prompt action and prevent further issues. This project guides you through building a do-it-yourself floater switch alarm system using a PIC12F508 microcontroller. The circuit for this project is relatively simple and requires very few components. The system is designed to operate with a 12V DC power supply and utilizes a 230V AC buzzer unit for audible alerts. Prototype version of the alarm controller. The circuit includes a mute function that allows you to temporarily silence the alarm for a specified duration. Additionally, a built-in timeout mechanism ensures continuous alarm activation if the floater switch remains closed for an extended period, indicating a potential emergency. This project is suitable for various applications, in...
