Aqua HighFlow Sensor

Hey Shoggy Pease tell me the above sensor multi directional since I have installed it with the writing upside down :) I really do not want to redo my loop....

So the sensor is upside down? That's not really recommend because the impeller will touch the top:

That doesn't matter at all because that sensor has no specific direction for the water.

On my aquasuite it says the calibration value in impulses/liter is 509 which make my flow around 82l/h which seems very low.

That sensor uses 169 impulses per liter.

Hello Shoggy,

I changed the calibration factore after reading this topic... until now I was a little bit disapointed with the value I read on my Aquaero for the flow sensor... with a Laing D5 pump I had a 80L/h flow on the controller.... but now after changing the calibration factor to 169 I get 225L/hour. Do you think it's normal with the D5 pump? I mean I just have to set ''169'' paramter in the flow sensor calibration and that's all? The result I'll get is realistic?

Thanks for your feed back,
Best regards,
Cyril

I can't tell you if it is exact but this sounds MUCH more realistic :)

Thank you shoggy. So finally the only mod we have to do after installing the High Flow meter is to set the calibration on the Aquaero to 169. Nothing else to do correct? I just want to make sure. To have a realistic reference basis (even if it's not a fully reliable measur, I can tolerate an error margin :thumbsup: ).

Cheers. :)

That sounds about right to me as well, as I get about 140 LPH from my Aquastream XT through a 6mm ID.
