Arduino Water Meter, Simple (4K)

[@ScienceTechnologyExperiments]

Can we use this meter to calculate AIR FLOW?

[@tsbrownie]

The idea could work, but there are 2 problems with this device. First at high speeds it misses measurements and second at high speeds the Arduino (and Raspberry Pi) can't keep up and misses measurements.

@@tsbrownie Thanks for prompt reply. Actually I don't need very high pressure. The air pressure will be used which is required a medical patient who inhales oxygen through oxygen cylinder. I want to mix atmospheric air with oxygen. And for this purpose I want to calculate generated air coming from air pump.

@@ScienceTechnologyExperiments You have to be real careful with oxygen, many chemicals will spontaneously ignite. I don't want to be negative, but I really don't think this is the right meter to use for that application. I think there's the fire risk and it will probably not keep up with even a relatively low flow of gas.

@@tsbrownie Thanks for the suggestion.

So lets say I want to make an 5gal bottle refill station for drinkwater. I add a solenoidvalve to shut off when 5gal has passed. Plus a input money payed start. And a couple sensors to check.if the bottle is placed before start. And to.check for leakages in dif stages of the system. Could this all be controllerd by a nano arduno? I forgot also a motor with a spiral to.sell caps.

Some arduinos might have enough inputs/outputs to work. Depends on the number of switches sensors, etc.

I love your video sir … Can you please tell me with the help of water flow meter and Arduino we can measure the input volume of liquid but in addition of this how we can show the tottal amount of liquid on the LCD display connected to arduino ????

[@tsbrownie]

There's a variable TotLit that is the total liters. That can be displayed on the LCD. I have a video on how to scroll the info on the LCD.

This is great for what I was looking for , thank you ! 👍 is there a place where you have the code posted or the video is the only place ? Once again great explanation.

[@lordhexon]

Is there a link to your code . I don’t have a 4K monitor even though the video is clear the fonts don’t look that clear on my screen, I guess I can work it out by pausing and zooming in… never the less thank you once again for the explanation it will work for my water cooling project monitoring the water flow and setting shut down due to low flow or no flow !

Can this meter be use to transfet slurry?

[@tsbrownie]

No, it's water only.

[@rasagem]

Can we use it to measure flow of water vapour?

[@tsbrownie]

I do not think it will work well for gases. They move too fast.
