Swimming is one of the most popular hobbies known to man. That's why swimming pool sanitation is a must. This research is focused on building a Microcontroller-Based Automatic Chlorine Injection Control System for Swimming Pools that would introduce an automated form of chlorination. A chlorine sensor is used to measure the chlorine concentration of the swimming pool and a submersible AC pump was used to simulate the filtration and circulation system for the experimental tests. The microcontroller computes for the difference between the measured value and the acceptable value and injects the correct amount of chlorine that will bring the pool's concentration to its acceptable value.
