Arahan Operasi

The DIGITEN FL-308 water flow sensor operates based on the Hall effect principle, generating a square wave pulse signal proportional to the water flow rate.

Flow Rate Calculation

The output frequency (F) in Hz can be calculated using the following formula:

F = 21 * Q (L/Min)

di mana:

F is the output pulse frequency in Hz.
Q is the water flow rate in Liters per Minute (L/Min).

The sensor provides approximately 450 output pulses per liter of water. This value can be used for total volume measurement over time.

Connect the yellow signal wire to a microcontroller or a pulse counter to read the frequency and calculate the flow rate or total volume.

Penyelenggaraan

Pemeriksaan Berkala: Periodically check the sensor and its connections for any signs of wear, damage, or leaks.
Pembersihan: If the sensor's performance degrades, it may be due to debris accumulation. Disconnect the sensor from the water line and power, then carefully flush it with clean water. Avoid using harsh chemicals.
Storan: If storing the sensor for an extended period, ensure it is clean, dry, and stored within the specified storage temperature and humidity ranges.

Menyelesaikan masalah

Masalah	Kemungkinan Punca	Penyelesaian
Tiada keluaran isyarat	Incorrect wiring (VCC, GND, Signal). Tiada bekalan kuasa atau vol tidak betultage. Sensor blockage or damage.	Verify wiring connections according to the diagram. Check power supply and ensure it's within DC 3-24V. Inspect the sensor for physical damage or internal blockage.
Inaccurate flow readings	Air bubbles in the water line. Sensor installed against flow direction. Debris inside the sensor. Gangguan elektromagnet luaran.	Ensure water line is free of air. Re-install sensor according to flow direction arrow. Clean the sensor as described in the Maintenance section. Relocate sensor away from strong electromagnetic fields.
Kebocoran air	Loose quick connect fittings. O-ring atau pengedap yang rosak. Exceeded maximum pressure.	Ensure fittings are fully seated and secure. Periksa dan gantikan sebarang pengedap yang rosak. Verify water pressure is below 0.8 MPa.
