- This video shows a water control system I designed and built to control multiple water tanks, solenoids, sensors, and one water pump. I used the Arduino UNO to control the conditions needed for the application and to manage IO.
Find the source code and all detailed information on my website post:

I get a lot of requests for arduino/electronics information and where to read up on it. I've listed my 4 top favorite books for this topic, and the last two links particularly Make's book is absolutely fantastic for step by step/hands on electronics learning.

Just finished a similar setup for my house that's basically inspired by this system. The organization, programming, devices and ideas used make complete sense and it was a joy to build. Thanks.
EnemyCube Thank you! I am glad it helped.
Oh my god!! The most professional and industrial Arduino project I have ever seen on youtube. Good job, sir.
level of details is beyond belief i built many things ftom garden water control to coffee roasters but none looks this good kudos!
Thank you, I really learned a lot along the way, I didn't pick it up overnight. Just read a lot and have a lot of patience and you can build anything you want.
I'm a design engineer who worked in defense electronics and commercial companies (so I've done many designs and layouts). I think you have done an A++ job in your parts selection and wiring layout. Very Professional! You should be be very proud of the work you're doing.
I used to design and sell aqueous cleaning systems. Your work is first rate, our panels looked like this so I can see you are experienced. Great work! Let me know if you ever need tips for handling water. We had machines with many pumps, valves, and blowers, drawing 400 amps on 480V. It's nice to see pro work with the arduino!
Thank you!
Just came across this project. You've done a very good job with the casing and cabling! I love the strong lights and the switch. I will try to adapt your design for an automated garden watering system, just need to find a similar case to yours.
Well done sir! Greetings from Germany
This is the most nice arduino water setup I have seen. Can't you help us all with more info like diagrams and code. This is a piece of art.
+Silvio Walter Thank you Silvio, send me a private message with your email address and I would be happy to send you the code.
+briancnc if you dont mind could you also send me that info, i just got started with arduino a little while ago and this would be an awsome build if i could learn it. Do you have the parts list, diagrams and code to send? that thing is amazing!
+briancnc Hell there, I am currently on my way to a diy aquaponics system and that setup looks amazing! I'd be great to get access to any more info you have on hand. Thank You!
Please check my site, I just posted the code and info there. www.briancnc.com/projects/arduino/arduino-water-control-system/
Hi Tom, thank you! I have a CNC router and I engraved a multi-layer plastic material for panel tags. I made the clearance holes for the pilot lights on the cnc router as well.
That looks amazingly well built. good job.
thats pretty fantastic visual and built system. using as reference for my projects since I first watched couple months ago. Thank you for sharing .
Congrats
That is the most professional looking arduino project I've ever seen....what DIN components are your favourite in terms of relays and terminal blocks?
very nice , clean , professional, good work, congratulations
Wow! How I wish I had resources to tidy-up my Arduino projects like yours.
wow... my first arduino project was a blinking led...
Don't get me wrong, mine was too! This was just my first solid project with the arduino. I did it all as everyone else, but I consider that more of education and practice, whereas this was a true application. Thanks!
Now you can water cool it! :)
Everyones first arduino project was a blinking LED. This is where i enventually ended up :D
th-cam.com/video/mTa9aHmF93w/w-d-xo.html
bartdereu mine was two led, one button, button pressed green led on (no Arduino) button free red led on (arduino)
Lol!
Wow ! I'm amazed by your layout. It looks so professional and perfect ! Very well done sir !
I work in design and engineering, but I got started on CNC zone, the mechmate forum for cnc machinery, and later got into studying a bit on my own. There are a good gems out there, such as Make's Electronics, and Getting Started in Electronics are excellent books to start with. I will follow-up in about 2 weeks with a how to video for this panel and my cnc panel as well.
Congratulations on an incredible piece of work. Beautifully put together.
Nice hardware and cable management you got there :)
great design and cool components, indeed great for a first project
Thank you!
Hi Brian , i love to see your control in function
No, never give up. Just because you don't know how to do something doesn't mean you can't. Keep it up and keep learning!
Good work, excellent wiring and presentation. Noticed the dials in Portuguese. Parabéns !!!
love the cabinet ! good job
Nice job on the wiring! Clamp terminal blocks, ferrules, nicely labeled :)
Clean setup. Good job!
yeah nice presentation of the project for sure
I do PLC programming and industrial motor controls for a living. I just bought my first arduino today. looks like youve built panels before ;) very nice!
Beautiful wiring!
I'm industrial engineer and hardware designer and I can tell this work you've done is very professional mate. Good work
Thanks so much!
Steven, thank you for your kind comments. Unfortunately I could never get the AC flyback and some ghosts worked out so I wasn't comfortable with leaving it as is and went with a more permanent manually wired solution without logic. I couldn't get the arduino to perform without the hiccups and therefor made the difficult decision to not use it. However as manual as the zero logic system is, it has far greater risk to fail, perhaps in the future I can figure out why this arduino didn't work out!
Thank you. I have experience with electronics yes, but this was my first experience with Arduino and microcontrollers. Prior, I knew nothing about the arduino, What are you trying to build? Arduino has a great user community, pick up a few books on amazon and post your ideas for help on the arduino forum. Don't give up, nothing is easy, especially at first.
Beautiful work. Thanks for sharing the explanation and coding.
Thank you for watching!
Very Impressive. A nice clean design.
I will follow-up with a technical video review of it today.
Very nice control set up!
Very cool great build love your work and wiring
Yes, I made it myself on my cnc machine. It's just a engraving tag material I bought. mcmaster carr sells it, it's pretty cheap. (white core) but they have various types. #7778T412 is the mcmaster carr part number. I engraved it on the cnc and cut it out, and also drilled the 22.5mm clearance holes for the pilot lights on the machine too.
Hi Tom. I designed it in autocad and carved it out on my cnc router (my other videos will show this machine). I programmed it in Vcarvepro (CAM software). If you don't have the machine to do it there are endless suppliers out there that make engraved panel tags.
Nice job. I'm from Canada and have been volunteering my time at a remote hospital in Zimbabwe. We have three pumps, 6 tanks spread over 3/4 km and everything is controlled manually. I started designing a control system using relay logic, but I figure it's time to get with the times.... Would it be possible to share your schematic and your arduino code with me? I would love to go through both in an understanding of what's being done..... so I can expand what you have to hopefully fit my project. I have a lot of experience as an electrician and controls in particularly, but my knowledge is old school analog but I'm learning!!
Nice cabling, man! How do you put the board in the box? Screws?
I like how you organise that panel....what software do you use for the panel design? thank you. nice job
Congratulations.
Very professional design.
Thanks, we are looking for arduino control for our evacuated tube hot water systems
Great set up!
Yes :) That would be great!! It looks very professional ..A tutorial would be very appriciated .. thank you for sharing .. awesome project ..Top!!
Very nice and neatly done, grats
Frank, it was a lot of stuff; from forums to books on amazon and past professional and personal experience with electronics. The best books are by simon monk and Massimo himself, as well as Make: Electronics and "getting started in electronics". Great reading material. The rest you have to learn with your hands and mind. Good luck!
Great job, I'm looking to build something similar. Could you recommend a good website to buy screw terminal blocks, panduit, enclosure, and wire? thanks
Hi Brian, Very professional job. Thanks for sharing. Could I have a look at your code please, as I am new to Arduino and would like to create something similar.
David
Great work, thanks for posting; I had to stop around 3:30, getting sea-sick from the camera movement :-P
Qual programa vc usa para fazer os esquemas elétricos e tem como faze um videos de como são esses projetos
Brasil
Hello,
Excellent work! I was wondering how you designed & manufactured the front panel that the pilot lights and selector switch sits on? It looks great, and I'd love to know how to produce something like that.
Thanks,
Tom.
nice clean job I wish my students were so organized.. I get really sick of seeing juice boxes & old pringle cans, yours might be overkill but looks great... any backup protection?
Great! Thanks for the information. Like I said, it looks great and thanks for sharing your methods with us.
Great work!
I am myself an Arduino enthusiastic, you project i well conceived and elaborated!
A+++++
Cool video shot, thanks for sharing, keep it up :)
Wow! I like this project and want to know if you have any electrical schematics, diagrams, or part lists. Thanks
very nice build
nice wiring, it would be my wiring reference how industrial panel with arduino inside.
Very Professional>> i am so excited to implement your project at my home :)
thanks for sharing
just be patient, everything you really need is on the net, it's like loosing weight, takes forever, but feels so bloody good when you succeed! i read once a way to think about programming is it's like a huge journey of very small steps haha
I'm impressed! great job!
thanks!
Nice work by the way!
wonderful view, thanks for aesthetic pleasure! as the label are made?
Obrigado! Valeu! It was for a house in Brazil.
Wow. Your work very smart.
Great!! is there a good tutorial for making this and how to program it ??
what did you do in all this time? i'm starting too and i don't know from where to learn
Hi, it's a very nice setup. How about durability and any troubles with arduino during these 5 years? Is this system still working? Was this maintenance-free and were there no problems with arduino like resets, spontaneous stops etc?
What relay Modules are these? Looks great!
Nice Work. Clean project.
Very nice Arduino based project. Bravo !
+Tom Tina Thanks Tom!
I would appreciate if you could tell me what documents-manuals-books have you look or read to end up something like this.
Thank you
Looks really nice!
how do you have done the Arduino -- Screw-terminal adaption?
That is an incredibly beautiful piece of work!
Do you have some sort of engraver to make your panel labels?
While it surely would have been easy to use a nano-PLC to run the system, I really think you did a great job with the MEGA! Looks as good as any controller from a custom panel shop costing thousands of dollars.
Great job! I'm sure the end user was happy (especially if they had been controlling the system manually)!
Well done colegue !
Man. First - congratz for your english. I thought you were american, but I see that the box is in portuguese, are you from Portugal or Brazil? Second - beautifully done, just a piece of art, I really enjoy watching that level of quality. If I would make a video about "how to: professional looking project" I would just post your video. All levels protections, everything in rails, indications, accuracy, professional schematics, all wires with id codes and so on. Great job. I don't know what is better in this video, the esthetics or functionality, everything is just so nice! haha cheers
Thank you, it was for a family house in Brasil!
Very nice project !
Hi, very nice work, can you send me the list of components you used? pls... thx
Great work!! Thank you for sharing!
+Fabio Hugo Martinez Thanks Fabio!
Olá Brian, parabéns pelo projeto e bom saber que fala Portugues.
Como você fixou a placa no painel??
Estou desenvolvendo um projeto para controle de motores de um navio e precisava fixar a placa no painel, e gostei bastante do seu painel.
Parabéns.
Ah sim.. Muito bom...
Parabéns .
Great project, I want to try this
Thanks!
Incredible wiring. Shame to hear you retired the setup. Would you happen to have the schematics on hand? I would love seeing a full outline.
Hello ! Great project ! Can you tell me what a "protected bus" is ? ? I'm not really sure what all that other stuff you had around the arduino does. Thanks for taking a moment ! This is very cool !
Hey! What sensors do you use to measure the water level! I'm trying to make a system for measuring the level of a cistern and send me the info but haven't found a sensor that could work in a bigger container.
Good day sir. Setup was very cleanand professional. Can give more info about this project like schematics and code? Badly needed for thesis references. Thanks.
Looks great, very smart!
I have a similar setup used to measure water flow with hall effect sensors and through a relay board control solenoids to shut the water on and off. Every time the solenoids activate, they cause error in the water flow reading (an erroneous instantaneous increase in the reading). Almost like they are putting EMI noise in the sensor cabling. What could be causing this?
i m using arduino with display on my water tank since last year, and its still working.
Congrats!
What kind of solenoid valves would you recommend?
Neat, I deal with electric panels all time and I can tell you this one is a clean, beautiful one, great job.
how long did it take you to do it?
bahri16 Thank you! A little too long, I saw it through as a proof of concept and a learning experience.
do you have a write up or parts list? this is great!
Great work, very professional. Where do you get your parts / supplies from?
Hi, can you send me a link of the relays pls?
Very nice idea. I've seen some yellow tags that have a flaten side with a small white paper to write on. But your idea works the same and it is cheaper.
How about the overlay of the front panel? Did you make it yourself? What material did you use?
is it possible to post detailed photo of the inside of box ?
Did you try optically isolating the relays from the Arduino? I had problems with hiccups when turning off the power of 230V AC stuff with my controller, optically isolating the relays and putting in some 0.1uF caps in my circuit made the problem go away.
Haha, cracked me up as well. I started with the blinking LED as well and went through the entire make: electronics book as well as other arduino ones before hitting this one up. It was ambitious and never worked 100% because of the inductive flyback I could never fully correct. I don't think this is a result of arduino's hardware though, just the way I implemented it.
