Just in time for S4x20! (Yes, it's properly locked down - the only remote access is SSH with client certificate auth, on a dedicated SCADA network)

The parts I ordered after the Christmas flooding incident had come in, so I set to work building a proper monitoring system. I started with a DIN rail mount kit for a Raspberry Pi, a couple of I/O boards, and a 4-20 mA submersible liquid level sensor. Here's the dev setup.pic.twitter.com/9ngVHzesr7

Note the water on the floor in the bottom right corner of the previous pic. That's not spillage from the bucket I was testing the sensor on, that's an active leak into my lab. I also grabbed a Gentex horn/strobe and some water-sensing cables to place along walls in trouble spotspic.twitter.com/XvwvhWa5eU

The only remaining step was to code up a nice touchscreen HMI to crunch the data. It collects water level measurements at 1 Hz, does some averaging to reduce noise, then calculates tank volume and flow rate in L/hr.pic.twitter.com/QH79c5Ka8l

I plan to also track pump duty cycle over the long term (seconds on vs off over the past hour or something). Current/planned alarm conditions include water on the floor, tank level above the float, and flow rate approaching the pump's capacity.

Then the only remaining piece will be adding logging so I can collect trends over time and test effectiveness of outdoor drainage upgrades, and installing a 24V UPS so that I still get alarms even if the power goes out.
