Water Flow Sensor Library Arduino

🚀 Description

Arduino library for Flow Sensor

Volume Formula

$$Volume (L) = {Total Pulse \over Pulse/Liter}$$

Flow rate Formula

$$Q = {Frequency \over Pulse/Liter}60$$ $$Q = {Pulse/Time \over Pulse/Liter}60$$

Q = Flowrate (Liter/minute)

🔥 Features

• Get Volume in Liter
• Get Flow Rate in Liter/Secound
• Get Flow Rate in Liter/Minute
• Get Flow Rate in Liter/hour
• Count Pulse and get Value

✨ Tested Devices

• Arduino Nano ATMega328P
• NodeMCU ESP8266
• NodeMCu ESP32
• LGT8F328P (Logic Green)

💻 Installation

Using Library Manager

Arduino

At Arduino IDE, go to menu Sketch -> Include Library -> Manage Libraries...

In Library Manager Window, search "flowsensor" in the search form then select "FlowSensor".

Click "Install" button.

Platform IO

For PlatformIO IDE, using the following command.

Or at PIO Home -> Library -> Registry then search FlowSensor.

Manual Installation

For Arduino IDE, download zip file from the repository (Github page) by select Code dropdown at the top of repository, select Download ZIP

From Arduino IDE, select menu Sketch -> Include Library -> Add .ZIP Library....

Choose FlowSensor-Arduino-master.zip that previously downloaded.

🔥 Sensor

Sensor Type	Code	Pulse/Liter
YF-S201	YFS201	450
YF-B1	YFB1	660
OF10ZAT	OF10ZAT	400
OF10ZZT	OF10ZZT	400
OF05ZAT	OF05ZAT	2174
OF05ZZT	OF05ZZT	2174

✨ Add New Sensor

If you want to add new sensor you can edit FlowSensor_Type.h file in src and create pull request or you can use dynamic declaration.

💻 Usages

See all examples

Initialization

If your sensor is not available in sensor list you can use dynamic declaration by use sensor pulse/liter in type, example 450 for YF-S201.

#include <FlowSensor.h>

uint16_t type = YFS201; // type : Sensor type or pulse/liter
// uint16_t type = 450;
uint8_t pin = D2; // pin : interrupt pin

FlowSensor Sensor(type, pin);

or if you sensor is not available in sensor list you can use pulse/liter sensor in type.

Sensor begin

param userFunc

void count()
{
    Sensor.count();
}

void setup()
{
    Sensor.begin(count());
}

Sensor Read

Sensor.read()

Count Pulse

Sensor.count()

Get Total Pulse

return total pulse

Sensor.getPulse()

Reset Pulse

set pulse value to 0

Sensor.resetPulse()

Get Flowrate (L/s)

return Flowrate (L/s)

Sensor.getFlowRate_s()

Get Flowrate (L/m)

return Flowrate (L/m)

Sensor.getFlowRate_m() 

Get Flowrate (L/h)

return Flowrate (L/h)

Sensor.getFlowRate_h() 

Get Total Volume (L)

return Volume (L)

Sensor.getVolume()

Reset Volume (L)

set volume value to 0

Sensor.resetVolume()
