Arduino Water Meter Pulse

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

Arduino water meter pulse.

Upload the water flow meter code to the arduino. Water flow meter which i used in the project is from aliexpress. This function then counts the total. 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. When the arduino detects the pulse it immediately triggers the pulsecounter function. Uploading code to arduino and measuring. 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.

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. For the a100c meter each pulse represents a 1000th of a kwhr of 1whr of energy passing through the meter. The code uses an external interrupt on the arduino s digital pin 2. Flow sensor is powered with an external 9 volt battery.

Calculating power 3600 seconds per hour 3600j per pulse ie. I bought it in 6 dollars. This is used to read the pulses coming from the flow meter. Use the tcrt5000 ir barrier line track sensor.

In some cases newer water meters are equipped with a pulse output. Upload the flow meter code to your arduino. Uploading the flow meter code to the arduino and measuring water flow rate. It emits an infrared light and detects the reflection.

In the above circuit i attached the pulse output pin of flow sensor to arduino digital pin 3. I will explain about it during code explanation. The code uses an external interrupt on the arduino s digital pin 2.
