However if you have an older power meter without a pulse output then you might be able to use one of the options below to sense your water consumption.
Arduino water meter reader.
A hackers solution to world hunger.
This a project i ve been working for some time now.
Least 4 minutes you find the testing experiment on mm 93.
So the water under.
Arduino hall effect water flow meter.
There is no specific method to checkthe level of the water.
Using technology and a hackers mindset to increase food security for the coming billions last updated 21 9 2015.
In some cases newer water meters are equipped with a pulse output.
The ph of pure water is 7.
It emits an infrared light and detects the reflection.
Now you can upload your sketch onto your arduino if you haven t uploaded a sketch before then follow this guide on getting started.
There was also the issue of how to power the arduino and magnetometer i had placed at the water meter which is well separated from my house.
Connect arduino with the laptop and open the serial monitor.
A project log for fly wars.
In this project we will interface yfs201 hall effect water flow sensor with arduino for measuring flow rate and volume of water or any other liquid.
The idea is to make a sensor which can sense the water levelin tanks where the motor pumps are used.
To check the water level ultrasonic hc sr04 is the distancesensor.
Because your setup ct resistors and input voltage may be different there is a scaling factor in the sketch which you will need to change before you will get.
Use the tcrt5000 ir barrier line track sensor.
So i built my smart meter model mm 93 based on arduino with some awesome features hope you like and enjoy the project.
It is a device that shows in a little lcd display the distance to the nearest object it can find usually the floor the ceilling and two walls or columns.
And it worked well.
So it can be so helpful to hang a picture.
The code is shown in the attached images here is the link to download the energy meter code.
This videos explain a lot of details about the project fabrications.
In general water with a ph lower than 7 is considered acidic and with a ph greater than 7 is considered basic.
