DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF AIR CONDITIONER (AC) MONITORING AND MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

Abstract

Nowadays, Air Conditioner (AC) has become a more
important appliance in our life. The primary reasons behind the AC
explosion are gas leakage, blockage in the evaporator and
compressor coil, pipelines, and dust in the air filters. Many people
have been injured over the years due to AC blasts. This paper
developed a system that uses sensor technology and intelligent
devices to reduce AC blast. As a result, pipeline leaks or blockage
fault detection system was planned and constructed using MQ-02,
TTC 103, optical dust sensors for gas detection, temperature
detection, and for detecting dust density, respectively. Also, bacteria
can be detected through the MQ-3 sensor as it combines with AC
refrigerant and produces ethanol. This system is also digitally
connected to smart devices (cellphones) and a control device (RM
MINI 3) so that users can receive a detection notification at any time
and operate AC from any location. By implementing these sensors,
the initial target was achieved. The work is low cost and
environment friendly
