The TSOC_WaterSensor is a simple passive water sensor with Grove Connectors, in an Embedded Module format for the new thingSoC, Internet of Things open standard. It includes a secondl breakout connector for an additional sensor (Temperature/Humidity) or actuator (Relay/Mosfet). It is designed to be used as a basement/sump water detector that engages a pump or alarm when water is present. The addiitional connector can be used to add a humidity/temperature sensor (ie. basement too hot or too moist), or for a an actuator, like a Relay (to turn on the sump pump when water is detected, etc.).
The TSOC_WaterSensor is a low cost, embeddable module featuring :
- Simple, Passive Water Sensor
- Additional Breakout connector
- Mounting holes
- thingSoC Compliant Module
- Mikrobus Compatible Module
TSOC_WaterSensorthingSoC Reference Designs are example thingSoC implementations that implement various reference and testing circuits for demonstrating the use of the thingSoC libraries. These reference designs can serve as starting templates for user designs.
The TSOC_WaterSensor can use either digital or analog inputs for water detection. The additional breakout connector can be used for an additional sensor (Temperature/Humidity) or actuator (Relay/Mosfet).
