I have a water flow sensor with arduino megs 2560 board.
Water flow gauge using arduino.
I am trying to conceptualize the concept to calculate amount of water getting dispensed esp.
I need to modify it so i can set to turn a light.
Lets begin and make circuit i will explain the code and circuit later.
Other projects tags.
I have practical arduino book and was deciding to make the water flow gauge.
Arduino based digital pressure gauge basic concept of pressure measurement is the measurement of applied force by a fluid on a surface.
The water flow sensors generate pulses sec when.
That is an awesome project that i would like to incorporate into and application i am working on.
There will be no interrupt signal seen at the pin 2 of the arduino and the count of the flow frequency will be zero.
If the output valve of the pipe is closed the output of the water flow sensor is zero no pulses.
Use of resources such as water gas and even electricity is typically measured by gauges that determine either instantaneous flow rate or cumulative volume over time.
In this tutorial you will learn how to use one water flow sensor with an arduino board.
The water flow sensor consists of a plastic valve body a water rotor and a hall effect sensor.
If the output valve of the pipe is closed the output of the water flow sensor is zero no pulses.
We need only one arduino gpio general purpose input output pin to interface flow meter with arduino.
Pressure sensor is used as transducer.
Gauge water flow measuring the consumption of a resource that has units by volume can be more tricky than it sounds.
When the water flows through the rotor rotor rolls and the speed of it changes with a different rate of flow.
So for the pulses counting we will be using the arduino s hardware interrupt 0.
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.
Arduino have to count the number of pulses outputted by the water flow sensor.
Arduino water flow sensor working in our project we connected the water flow sensor to a pipe.
For this purpose using interrupts is a best choice.
Our project is to make digital pressure gauge that will measure up to 150 psi.
There will be no interrupt signal seen at the pin 2 of the arduino and the count of the flow frequency will be zero.
The water flow sensor 5v pin is connected with the arduino s 5 volts the ground pin of the water flow sensor is connected with the arduino s ground and the signal wire is connected with the arduino s pin number 2 which is the interrupt pin.
