How to configure Aranet Pulse Counter for water consumption monitoring
Aranet Dry Pulse Counter (https://aranet.com/products/aranet-dry-contact-pulse-counter/) is a device designed for pulse output monitoring, perfect for electricity, gas meters or water flow monitoring.
In this example we are going to look at water consumption monitoring. First we should get a water meter and reed switch that can convert the information for Aranet pulse counter or simply get water meter that already allows to connect it to Aranet pulse counter. For example:
Once water meter is connected to Aranet Pulse counter, correct adjustments for conversion should be made from Aranet base station web interface.
We should choose the dimension- volume in this case, unit- could pick any of the offered, but in this example will choose liters, and finally corresponding unit count per pulse.
In this example we can see that one pulse will be counted for every 10 liters that water meter measures. This can also be displayed in chart:
In this chart we can see already converted pulses to chosen units (liters) per time period. This allows us to get visual interpretation of when water consumption would be bigger in specific time period.
