Reliability modeling for an automatic level control system

Water resource availability is an important problem as water is basically used for everything we make. In a water distribution process the level and flow must be always controlled. Therefore, the parameters of the system must be known at any moment. This paper presents an automatic level control system which is analyzed in terms of reliability in order to present solutions to clarify how such systems could be designed as robust as possible.
