tonio 3 weeks ago in General questions updated by Support Manager 3 weeks ago 3

Hello! I have a D105 and I'm trying to connect the  water flow sensor YF-G1 to it, everythings ok, but i'm not really understanding the conversion from pulses to water flow.

Any helping in this matter?

Hello,

You should know how many liters or m3 are in one impulse.
This information is usually indicated on the meter or in the instructions.

E.g. if water meter, where 1 imp = 0.01 m3 = 10 liters

In order for the widget to display the flow rate in m3 in the settings in the Arithmetic operation, you need * 0.01

To have liters on the widget, you need to multiply by 10.

See the article in the Knowledge Base about connecting a meter with a pulse output.

Then about the filter that the D105 sets in the impulses, it should be good with 10ms? or should I change it?

thank you for the fast reply on the topic, really appreciate it!

It is advisable to know the pulse duration from your meter.

In most cases you can set 0ms or 10ms

Then observe, if there are extra impulses, the filter can be increased.
