tank, gate valve, and actuator, controller in LabVIEW and bubbler pressure sensor. The system consists of 5 major parts viz. Wagoner (2004) has studied and implemented the automatic liquid level control in a water tank. In this project we are using float level sensor to sense liquid level along with LabVIEW software in windows based PC to control the electromagnetic valve through DAQ card. Therefore an experimental setup will be constructed to control liquid level in a tank using Lab VIEW & Matlab software. The development of virtual and open architecture monitoring systems shifts the focus of automation from being hardware centric to software centric, providing further flexibility. Advances in microprocessor, computing, networking and interfacing technologies have improved capabilities of industrial measurement and monitoring systems substantially over the period. Over the last several decades, computer control of manufacturing systems has been the focus of extensive research. The more obvious industrial applications include: tank level gauging of milk, beer or wine in food and beverage industry level gauging of acid, oil and solvent vessels in chemical plants level monitoring of water in reservoirs. In many instances it is not possible or not practical to directly view the interior. Many industrial and scientific processes require knowledge of the quantity of content of tanks and other containers. Keywords LabVIEW, liquid level control, PID, control system, Matlab Measurements carried out in laboratory show that the accuracy of some millimeters could be achieved. In order to illustrate flexibility of the designed system the front panel of the developed virtual instrument is presented. A prototype of a liquid level monitoring system based on float sensors, electromagnetic valve, Matlab and LabVIEW environment is developed for measuring liquid level accurately and accordingly maintaining the level of liquid close to the reference level. Using this approach the cheaper and more versatile measurement system can be developed.

With virtual measurement technology, more of the instrument can be substituted by software. It made the product expensive, with low functionality and with limited precision. Most of the traditional measuring systems were designed and implemented by complicated hardware circuitry.
