The Water Flow Measurement Sensor 1–30 LPM (model YF-S201) is a Hall effect flow sensor with a 0.5 inch inner diameter and 20mm outer diameter, measuring water flow from 1 to 30 litres per minute with ±10% accuracy, operating from 5V to 18V DC (4.5V minimum tested) within -25°C to 80°C, rated for up to 2.0 MPa water pressure with a 50% ±10% duty cycle pulse output at 450 pulses per litre. The flow sensor price for this YF-S201 model reflects its household and RO system-scale flow range — significantly larger than the smaller YF-S401 mini sensor designed for dosing-scale flows under 6 L/min.
The flow sensor yf s201’s 450 pulses-per-litre calibration constant is a precisely specified figure, making volume calculation straightforward — dividing total pulse count by 450 gives litres dispensed directly, without needing separate calibration testing. As a water flow system component, this YF-S201 fits standard 0.5 inch household plumbing, making it the go-to sensor for RO purifier flow monitoring, tap water usage tracking, and irrigation line flow measurement across typical Indian residential plumbing setups. The Water Flow Measurement Sensor 2.0 MPa pressure rating comfortably exceeds typical household mains water pressure.
the Water Flow Sensor ±10% accuracy specification means this sensor is suitable for general flow monitoring and usage tracking but not for precision metering applications requiring tighter tolerances — billing-grade water metering would need a more accurate (and costlier) flow meter. Well-suited for makers, this water flow sensor available at StemVolt enables fluid monitoring, pump control, and IoT projects using precise real-time flow measurement.
