Abstract :

The aim of our project is to monitor the level of the oil in the vehicle oil tank and to automatically indicate the level information through LCD display.The main blocks are micro controller unit, oil level sensor and LCD display unit. The oil level detection circuit is used to detect the level of the oil in the tank here sensors are placed at certain places to find out the oil level and the signals are sent to the micro controller unit for further operations. Here sensors are placed at various places to sense the oil level and the signals from these sensors are sent to the micro controller unit to decide the exact level information. When the oil level reaches the top level sensor which means that the tank is full and this will be indicated to the user by means of the level information is indicated through LCD. By this same method the other sensors are working accordingly. The temperature sensor will sense the temperature of the oil. The viscous meter will sense the viscosity of the oil. Here the level information is displayed in terms of percentage and this information is preprogrammed according to the sensor position. The oil level indication is set to execute once for medium level and for high level and it will repeat continuously for the low level until the user fills the level of the oil correctly
