To program Arduino for water level controller, first we define all the pin that we are going to use in the project for interfacing external devices like relay,

#define trigger 10
#define echo 11
#define motor 8
#define buzzer 12


Then we initialize all the devices used in project.

lcd.begin(16,2);
pinMode(trigger,OUTPUT);
pinMode(echo,INPUT);
pinMode(motor, OUTPUT);
pinMode(buzzer, OUTPUT);
lcd.print(" Water Level ");
lcd.setCursor(0,1);
lcd.print(" Indicator ");
delay(2000);


Now initialize the ultrasonic sensor module and read time of sending and receiving time of ultrasonic waves or sound by using pulseIn(pin). Then perform calculations and display the result on 16x2 LCD by using appropriate functions.

digitalWrite(trigger,HIGH);
delayMicroseconds(10);
digitalWrite(trigger,LOW);
delayMicroseconds(2);
time=pulseIn(echo,HIGH);
distance=time*340/20000;
lcd.clear();
lcd.print("Water Space In ");
lcd.setCursor(0,1);
lcd.print("Tank is: ");
lcd.print(distance);
lcd.print("Cm");
After it we check conditions if water tank is full or water level is LOW, and take actions accordingly.

if(distance<12 && temp==0)
{
digitalWrite(motor, LOW);
digitalWrite(buzzer, HIGH);
lcd.clear();
lcd.print("Water Tank Full ");
lcd.setCursor(0,1);
lcd.print("Motor Turned OFF");
delay(2000);
digitalWrite(buzzer, LOW);
delay(3000);
temp=1;
}

else if(distance<12 && temp==1)
{
digitalWrite(motor, LOW);
lcd.clear();
lcd.print("Water Tank Full ");
lcd.setCursor(0,1);
lcd.print("Motor Turned OFF");
delay(5000);
}
#include <LiquidCrystal.h>
 
#define trigger 10
#define echo 11
#define motor 8
#define buzzer 12
 
LiquidCrystal lcd(7,6,5,4,3,2);
 
float time=0,distance=0;
int temp=0; 
void setup()
{
 lcd.begin(16,2);
 pinMode(trigger,OUTPUT);
 pinMode(echo,INPUT);
 pinMode(motor, OUTPUT);
 pinMode(buzzer, OUTPUT);
 lcd.print("  Water Level ");
 lcd.setCursor(0,1);
 lcd.print("   Indicator  ");
 delay(2000);
}
 
void loop()
{
 lcd.clear();
 digitalWrite(trigger,LOW);
 delayMicroseconds(2);
 digitalWrite(trigger,HIGH);
 delayMicroseconds(10);
 digitalWrite(trigger,LOW);
 delayMicroseconds(2);
 time=pulseIn(echo,HIGH);
 distance=time*340/20000;
 lcd.clear();
 lcd.print("Water Space In  ");
 lcd.setCursor(0,1);
 lcd.print("Tank is: ");
 lcd.print(distance);
 lcd.print("Cm");
 delay(2000);
 if(distance<12 && temp==0)
 {
     digitalWrite(motor, LOW);
     digitalWrite(buzzer, HIGH);
     lcd.clear();
     lcd.print("Water Tank Full ");
     lcd.setCursor(0,1);
     lcd.print("Motor Turned OFF");
     delay(2000);
     digitalWrite(buzzer, LOW);
     delay(3000);
     temp=1;
 }
 
  else if(distance<12 && temp==1)
 {
     digitalWrite(motor, LOW);
     lcd.clear();
     lcd.print("Water Tank Full ");
     lcd.setCursor(0,1);
     lcd.print("Motor Turned OFF");
     delay(5000);
 }
 
 else if(distance>30)
 {
   digitalWrite(motor, HIGH);
   lcd.clear();
   lcd.print("LOW Water Level");
   lcd.setCursor(0,1);
   lcd.print("Motor Turned ON");
   delay(5000);
   temp=0;
 }
}
