Abstract - Drinking Water contamination is a big threat

level fluctuations in the drinking water supply system in the Water Distribution Network.

to human living in rural areas. In India, many parts of the states use Water Distribution Network from a common storage system (like pond, river and community water tanks).Water contamination can occur due to various unintentional and intentional behavior of nature and human. Machine-accessible monitoring and ready to test methods does not exist in the current system. In this work, a Wireless Sensor-based technology is used with pH sensor, ultrasonic sensor, and turbidity sensor designed to maintain the ratio of water to the chlorine. The collected information is shared with the main server located in control room for monitoring and maintaining the chlorine level.

1. INTRODUCTION A typical water distribution network consists of sources, pipes and hydraulic elements connected together to deliver prescribed quantities of water at desired pressure and quality at various demand points[1]. In rural areas the WDN is not very large, there are limited storage tanks and hence the chlorine level fluctuations affect a wide cross section of the area. The chlorine level fluctuations in drinking water can cause various diseases like flu, such as headaches, diarrhea, cramps, nausea or vomiting. It is not possible for the people to get proper medication for these diseases and hence it is very important for the water authority to check the quality of the water.

2.1 BLOCK DIAGRAM DESCRIPTION The above fig.1 shows the Block Diagram of the Chlorine level controller. It consists of Power supply unit, Arduino (mega 2560), ultrasonic sensor, turbidity sensor, pH sensor, Buzzer, Relay, GSM module and DC Motor. 2.1.1 ARDUINO (MEGA 2560)

According to a survey, it is recorded that there have been major fluctuations in the chlorine level of the drinking water. High level of chlorine can cause diseases but low level of chlorine does not kill the germs and hence makes the water unfit for drinking. In the existing system the storage tanks are filled with water regularly and the gasometer adds the chlorine in the pipeline of the flowing water coming from the storage tank, in this system the chlorine value to be given in the pipeline is fixed, therefore when there is a low flow of water, the chlorine level in water increases and vice versa. In this work, we have proposed a system to overcome the problem of chlorine

Arduino (Mega 2560) is based on easy to use hardware and software. In this project, we have used the Arduino IDE. It is an open-source electronics platform which easily helps to interact with the hardware using an Arduino IDE. The Arduino IDE has a concept of sketchbook for writing the programs or storing sketches. The programming of the code for our project is stored in the sketchbook. The programs are saved with an extension “.ino”. When we upload a sketch, the Arduino bootloader is executed. i.e. a small program has been loaded on to the microcontroller on your board. Libraries are used to extend the Arduino environment functionalities, As most of the programming
