Project Aim:

To learn how to build a soil moisture tester that alerts when soil moisture levels are low.


Components Used:

1.     Soil Pot

2.     Power Supply

3.     Transistor NPN

4.     Buzzer

5.     Resistor 1K &10K

6.     Probes

7.     Connecting Wires



Circuit Diagram:


Connection Procedure:  

Step 1: Connect the positive terminal of the power supply (Pin 62) to one end of the 1K resistor (Pin 5).

Step 2: Connect the other end of the 1K resistor (Pin 6) to one of the soil probes.

Step 3: Connect the positive terminal of the power supply (Pin 63) to the positive terminal of the buzzer (Pin 54).

Step 4: Connect the negative terminal of the buzzer (Pin 53) to the collector of the NPN transistor (Pin 31).

Step 5: Connect the emitter of the NPN transistor (Pin 29) to the negative terminal of the power supply (Pin 59).

Step 6: Connect the base of the NPN transistor (Pin 30) to one end of the 10K resistor (Pin 11).

Step 7: Connect the other end of the 10K resistor (Pin 12) to the negative terminal of the power supply (Pin 60).

 

Explanation:

              The soil moisture tester circuit helps us understand soil moisture levels in a pot. It works by sensing the conductivity of the soil using probes. When moisture levels drop, soil conductivity increases. This triggers a transistor, activating the buzzer to emit a beep, signaling low soil moisture. By building and understanding this circuit, we learn to monitor and manage soil moisture effectively for healthy plant growth.
