In the last blog How to utilize Water Flow Sensor/Meter with Arduino, we clarified the rudiments of the water stream sensor and Arduino utilization. 

You can discover many water stream sensors on our site, so the inquiry comes, which one is best for your venture? Indeed, simply require 5 minutes to peruse the blog and adhere to the straightforward 3 guidelines, every one of your questions will be no more! 

Rule No.1: The application situation decides the sort of water stream sensor to utilize. 

However you can track down at least twelve water level monitoring sensor on our web market, commonly they can be separated into two sorts: 

Huge breadth copper pipe 

Little measurement plastic line 

YF-B1 ~ YF-B7 has a place with the Large-measurement type. The YF-Bx serials are regularly utilized in industry, horticulture, and creature cultivation, and in this manner require the utilization of copper pipes that are more impervious to pressure and better impervious to consumption. 

While little measurement ones are typically utilized for home devices. The most widely recognized of these are the YF-S201 and YF-S402. The YF-S201 is appropriate for card containers, water candy machines, while the YF-S402 is reasonable for more modest width home devices, for example, water allocators, espresso creators. Incidentally, both YF-S402 and YF-S201 are normally utilized in Arduino and Raspberry Pi water stream sensor projects. 

Now and again, you need to gauge both water stream and water temperature, similar to water radiators, or dishwashers. Then, at that point, you need to pick a water stream sensor with a temperature sensor. All things considered, we got YF-B4 and YF-B7, both can recognize the water temperature. 

Rule No.2: Choose the water stream sensor by pipe width. 

Typically, the line distance across of the gadget that necessities to gauge water stream is fixed, so you need to pick a water stream sensor that fits the gadget's line breadth. The water stream sensors on our site are all in the British Standard Pipe(BSP). That is the reason can discover G1/2 or G3/4 in the sensor name. 

Relax in case you are utilizing the American National Pipe Thread(NPT). You can in any case utilize the BSP water stream sensor with your NPT pipe, Just need to do some straightforward transformations. For more detail kindly take a look at the Thread standard. 

Rule No.3: Choose the water stream sensor by boundary. 

For the water stream sensor the main boundaries are: 

Water Flow Rate Range 

Max Water Pressure 

Working Voltage 

You can track down all the data in the table above, simply ensure you pick the right water stream sensor with the right boundary. For Arduino Projects, in case you don't know which one to pick, simply attempt YF-S201 and YF-S402.
