New Flowmeter
FYI, the quote from rb;
The Corrente digital flowmeter from PRS Japan has yet to really make it to the hands of that many reefers but already the company is working on making this a must have device. The PRS Corrente already comes in four sizes with pipe diameters from 0.5, 0.75, 1 and 1.25 inches yet PRS is already hard at work developing the Corrente+ with pipe diameters in 1.5 and 2 inches wide.

They sell sensors for A LOT cheaper than that. I've been doing it on my ReefAngel for years.
It's sort of useless for most stuff but I travel for work a lot and it is nice to know everything is still working. Field 0-3 are my reactors and my frag tank (bottom left). http://www.seeedstudio.com/depot/G12...sor-p-635.html It's good that someone is putting it together in a single package and it could be a useful tool for some applications. If it could also control an actuated gate valve so you could set a gph rate...

You have to ask theracer619 how to hook it up to a controller such as Apex, RK or RA. Last edited by sowildpaul; 03/29/2015 at 04:07 PM. |

I can post my code when I get home.
You just have to be able to count pulses. The reef angel can do it with its io module. Not sure about the others but you could probably use an arduino to adapt to them.
