Abstract
A water level monitoring system includes at least one floating unit, a load cell and a sensor module. The floating unit is used for sinking in water. The load cell is connected to the floating unit for generating a force value reflecting buoyancy generating from the floating unit entering the water. The sensor module is connected to the load cell for sensing the force value from the load cell and includes an amplifier for amplifying a sensed value. A processor connected to the amplifier receives the sensed value from the amplifier and calculating a water level depth to be measured. Thus the water level motoring system has features of low cost, high stability and flexibility.
