🚀 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.

✨ 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);

if you want to change sensor pin and sensor type you can use setPin and setType.
if you change the pin with setPin() you have to do sensor.begin() again

Sensor.setPin(pin);
Sensor.setType(type);

Sensor begin

param userFunc
param pullup
if you have an external pull up you can set pull up to true

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

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

Set Sensor Pin

param pin

Sensor.setPin(pin);

Set Sensor Type

param type

Sensor.setType(type);

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()
