AQUA COMPUTER Pressure Sensor Delta 40

Friday, November 27th 2015, 10:43am

I think the pressure sensor which I bought doesn't work properly or I have bad setup.
Problem is the sensor always shows 1bar pressure in reservoir and once its setup it always shows me fill level in 100 procent even if reservoir is filled in half.
I strictly was follow manual during connection and setup.
Thanks for any advice

Might be helpful to provide a photo of your setup and a screenshot of the configuration page.

I have connected High port on pressure sensor delta 40 into outlet on the bottom of reservoir. On the top of reservoir I have installed membrane from Aquacomputer. The pressure sensor is connected to PC via USB cable


There is some pictures taken:

I assume you want to measure the fill level in the reservoir, right? In this case your sensor is configured to the wrong device type. The device type must be level sensor delta 40. The rest of the setup is almost self-explanatory: enter the theoretical maximum fill level which is the height of the tube and also the current fill level. After a click on the button "calibrate" you are done ;)

The tube which is connected to the reservoir should not be connected within an active flow area because in this case the pumps pressure will work against the membrane inside the sensor. Ideally your reservoir has multiple threads at its base where the tube is connected. It confuses me a bit when you say it is connected to the outlet.
