Circuit operating principle
This water level indicator circuit is composed of the water level detection electrode A-E, the voltage stabilization diode VS, the resistors Rl-R9, the four op-amps Nl-N4 and the LED VLl-VM, as the figure shows.
When there is no water in the tank, the reversed-phase input port voltages of the op-amps Nl-N4 are higher than +5V, so the Nl-N4 output the low electrical level, the LEDs VLl-VL4 turn off.
When the water level of the tank gets to the electrode D, the water resistance connects the electrode D with the electrode E to make the operational amplifier Nl's inverting input port (pin-2) voltage lower than +5V.
