Remote Borehole Water Monitor Kit with Arduino Nano + LoRa
Remote Borehole Water Monitor Kit with Arduino Nano + LoRa
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
For farmers, groundwater managers, and agri‑tech developers, this kit lets you build a solar‑powered remote monitoring system that tracks water level deep inside a borehole and measures how much water is being pumped—all without needing cellular coverage or Wi‑Fi at the well. Two Arduino Nano nodes communicate via LoRa over kilometres, logging data to an SD card while sending real‑time readings to a base station at your farmhouse or control room. Whether you are managing irrigation schedules for a large holding, participating in the Smart India Hackathon, or prototyping a precision agriculture solution for a B.Tech ECE/EEE project, this kit delivers a field‑ready monitoring backbone.
What You'll Build
You will assemble a sensor node encased in a waterproof enclosure, powered by a 6 V solar panel and dual 18650 cells. It dives a submersible pressure sensor into the borehole to measure water column height with centimetre‑accuracy, while a YF‑S201 flow sensor captures instantaneous pumping rate. Data is timestamped by a DS3231 RTC and stored locally on a MicroSD card, then transmitted long‑range via RA‑02 LoRa modules to a second Arduino Nano receiver that displays the readings on a serial monitor or forwards them to a cloud dashboard. At the end, you own a rugged, autonomous water telemetry system you can duplicate across multiple boreholes.
What You'll Learn
- Calibrate a 0‑10 m submersible pressure sensor and convert raw ADC values into water depth
- Configure LoRa point‑to‑point communication with RA‑02 modules and 433 MHz antennas
- Interface Hall‑effect flow sensors to log instantaneous and cumulative water volume
- Design a solar charging circuit with TP4056, 18650 cells, and deep‑sleep power management for 24/7 operation

Who This Kit Is For
This is built for advanced hobbyists, B.Tech ECE/EEE final‑year project students, Smart India Hackathon teams working on agricultural IoT, and professionals prototyping groundwater telemetry for ATL labs or agri‑startups. If you already know how to upload Arduino code and solder, and you want to move beyond breadboard experiments to a field‑deployable solution, this kit provides the complete hardware ecosystem without the supply‑chain headache.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Scan the QR code to open the AI companion, which provides step‑by‑step diagnostics. You can also send photos over WhatsApp; we typically respond within a few hours.
Does this work in areas with no internet coverage?
Absolutely. The LoRa link doesn't need the internet. Data is stored on the SD card and shown on the receiver’s serial output. You can later push it to a cloud platform if you add a GSM or Wi‑Fi module at the receiver end.
Do I need soldering experience?
Yes, this kit expects you to solder components onto the prototype boards. A soldering iron and wire are included, along with clear assembly diagrams in the AI companion.
Can I expand this to monitor multiple boreholes?
Yes, you can build additional sensor nodes using the same component set with unique LoRa addresses; the receiver can be programmed to poll each node sequentially.
LoRa-connected Arduino with submersible pressure sensor monitors groundwater level and pumping rate at remote borehole.
