Arduino Water Meter Pulse

When the arduino detects the pulse it immediately triggers the pulsecounter function.

Arduino water meter pulse.

I will explain about it during code explanation. In some cases newer water meters are equipped with a pulse output. Upload the flow meter code to your arduino. In this project we will interface yfs201 hall effect water flow sensor with arduino for measuring flow rate and volume of water or any other liquid this is a very wonderful project that can be used in industry or at home or at water flow measurement application in water tap tunnel river etc.

The code uses an external interrupt on the arduino s digital pin 2. Calculating power 3600 seconds per hour 3600j per pulse ie. Water flow sensor for flow rate volume measurement using arduino code along with. This is used to read the pulses coming from the flow meter.

Reading pulses from meters with pulse outputs. The code uses an external interrupt on the arduino s digital pin 2. Digital pin 3 of arduino is configured as interrupt pin. Uploading the flow meter code to the arduino and measuring water flow rate.

This function then counts the total. However if you have an older power meter without a pulse output then you might be able to use one of the options below to sense your water consumption. Upload the water flow meter code to the arduino. 1 whr 3600j therefore instantaneous power p 3600 t where t is the time between the falling edge of each pulse.

This is used to read the pulses coming from the flow meter. I bought it in 6 dollars. When the arduino detects the pulse it immediately triggers the pulse counter function. Flow sensor is powered with an external 9 volt battery.

Water flow meter which i used in the project is from aliexpress. It emits an infrared light and detects the reflection. For the a100c meter each pulse represents a 1000th of a kwhr of 1whr of energy passing through the meter.
