YF-S201 Water Flow Sensor

Description

This sensor sits in line with your water line and contains a pinwheel sensor to measure how much liquid has moved through it. There’s an integrated magnetic hall effect sensor that outputs an electrical pulse with every revolution. The hall effect sensor is sealed from the water pipe and allows the sensor to stay safe and dry.

The pulse signal is a simple square wave so its quite easy to log and convert into liters per minute using the following formula:
Pulse frequency (Hz) / 7.5 = flow rate in L/min.

Features :
The simple and compact module.
Easy to Install.
High Sealing Performance.
High-Quality Hall Effect Sensor.
RoHS Compliant
