Overvoltage and undervoltage protection circuit diagram | High and low voltage protection circuit diagram Using LM358

clear: both; text-align: center;">

Voltage fluctuations and power cuts adversely affect various electrical appliances such as Tv, music system, refrigerator, etc. Here is a simple and inexpensive circuit using opamp Lm358 to disconnect the equipment during high and low voltage.

We can also use LM324 to design this circuit by using only the two op amps out of the four. We can also design a high low voltage cut out using 741 op amp. In this case, we have to use two 741 ics.

You will need:

Transformer: 0-18v or 9-0-9v, 300mA or above

Resistors :

R1 – 10K, 1/4W
R2 – 50K (preset)
R3 – 50K (preset)
R4 – 33K, 1/4W
R5,R6 – 4.7K, 1/4W
R7 – 100K, 1/4W
R8 – 2.2K, 1/4W
R9 – 100K, 1/4W

Diode:

D1 – 6.2V, 1/2W Zener
D2,D3 – IN4148
D4 – IN4007

DB1 – Bridge Rectifier – DB107

Capacitor:

C1 – 470uF, 40V
C2 – 0.1uF, Ceramic

Led (5mm or 3mm)

L1 – Green
L2 – Yellow
L3 – Red

Q1 – s8050 Transistor

RY1 – 12V Relay

U1 – 7812
U2 – LM358

High and low voltages are adjusted using the Variac. High is adjusted at 260V and low is adjusted at 160V or as per your requirement. If the voltage is high, L3 will light up and if it is lower than the preset voltage, L2 will light up. In both the cases, relay will be activated to disconnect the load. Thus the appliances are protected against the voltage variation. The whole circuit can be easily assembled on a general purpose PCB.

Fully Automatic Water Level Controller Circuit With Motor Dry Run Protection Without Using Microcontroller

Author: Manikandan KJ © KJMIndia Automatic water level controllers regulate the water supply for a given reservoir/tank to maintain a minimum water level. This water level controller circuit uses a float switch to control the water level of the storage tank. It is an automatic system, so it will start to fill up when the height of the water goes below a certain point. If it reaches full capacity, the float switch will automatically turn off. This protects against overfilling and spilling of water. The water level controller manages the level of water in a tank. It automatically detects the tank's water level and turns the pump on or off to maintain it at the desired level. The float switch helps detect different levels of water by using a magnetic switch module that floats on top of the water. FEATURES OF THIS CIRCUIT: ( Click here to buy the ready-made kit) Low-cost circuit made out of readily available components. Low power consumption. Turns on the pump when ...
