Arduino Pulse Counter Water Meter

In the above circuit i attached the pulse output pin of flow sensor to arduino digital pin 3.

Arduino pulse counter water meter.

Donate to support open hardware. Digital pin 3 of arduino is configured as interrupt pin. Water flow meter which i used in the project is from aliexpress. The pulse output may be a flashing led or a switching relay usually solid state or both.

Best live chat. Using an sd card and an ethernet connection together has proven challenging both use an spi connection until i used the w5100 chip based ethernet shield with an integrated sd card. Use the tcrt5000 ir barrier line track sensor. Order online or call toll free 1 800 899 0553.

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. The kal d06 series digital pulse counter adds a remote digital display with reset to any mechanical water meter with pulse output. It emits an infrared light and detects the reflection. The home for open source hardware.

The ethernet connection is used to answer a handful of basic http requests. I will explain about it during code explanation. In the case of an electricity meter a pulse output corresponds to a defined amount of energy passing through the meter kwh. I bought it in 6 dollars.

The kal d06 series digital pulse counter adds a remote digital display with reset to any mechanical water meter with pulse output. A log of all water meter activity is saved on the sd card. In some cases newer water meters are equipped with a pulse output.
