Arduino Water Meter Pulse

This is used to read the pulses coming from the flow meter.

Arduino water meter pulse.

In some cases newer water meters are equipped with a pulse output. Upload the flow meter code to your arduino. Water flow meter which i used in the project is from aliexpress. Upload the water flow meter code to the arduino.

When the arduino detects the pulse it immediately triggers the pulse counter function. 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. This is used to read the pulses coming from the flow meter. Calculating power 3600 seconds per hour 3600j per pulse ie.

The code uses an external interrupt on the arduino s digital pin 2. Water flow sensor for flow rate volume measurement using arduino code along with. Flow sensor is powered with an external 9 volt battery. 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.

I bought it in 6 dollars. 1 whr 3600j therefore instantaneous power p 3600 t where t is the time between the falling edge of each pulse. Uploading code to arduino and measuring. When the arduino detects the pulse it immediately triggers the pulsecounter function.

Digital pin 3 of arduino is configured as interrupt pin. For the a100c meter each pulse represents a 1000th of a kwhr of 1whr of energy passing through the meter. This function then counts the total. Reading pulses from meters with pulse outputs.

Use the tcrt5000 ir barrier line track sensor. Uploading the flow meter code to the arduino and measuring water flow rate. I will explain about it during code explanation.
