totalizer to GPM
Community,
I'm experimenting with a program where I need to convert a pulsed flow meter signal into GPM. No big deal, right?! Here's the catch: the turbine style flowmeter is calibrated at 1 pulse per gallon. The well flows right around 60 GPM 24/7. There is a self contained totalizer at the site now that is "jittery" in it's GPM indications. I already know all the ways I could count pulse or measure frequency and factor my way to GPM. With a range of 0 to 100 GPM at 1 pulse/gallon what is
To clarify things that are being misinterpreted, I experimented and have my example of how to do it. This was run on a V130 with the latest firmware. It is the basics of everything you would need, and really is very simple once I got there. It gives the "immediate" flow rate between the last sense and the one before that, like I have previously suggested. I used the 2.5ms count for simplicity and the ability to run on older units. Edit: oops, wrong number in the vlp, changed it to correct.
