Description

The Saier HZ21WD Water Flow Sensor employs a precision turbine mechanism to translate fluid velocity into a measurable electrical signal. As fluid passes through the sensor body, it spins an internal rotor, generating a Hall effect pulse train proportional to the flow rate. This signal is conditioned onboard for robust analog or digital output.

Constructed for reliable long-term operation, the sensor features a durable housing capable of withstanding working pressures up to 1.75 MPa. Its low power consumption (≤15mA) and wide input voltage tolerance make it suitable for both battery-powered IoT devices and mains-powered industrial control systems, ensuring stable performance across varying supply conditions.

Key Features

  • Precision turbine flow sensor with integrated Hall effect detection.
  • Broad flow measurement range from 1 to 30 liters per minute.
  • High insulation resistance (>100 MΩ) and dielectric strength (AC500V, 50Hz) for electrical safety.
  • Compact and lightweight design facilitates straightforward inline plumbing integration.
  • Dual-output capability (digital pulse and analog voltage) provides interface flexibility.
  • Robust construction ensures reliable performance in both liquid and gas flow applications.
  • Low input current requirement maximizes energy efficiency for portable systems.

Applications

  • Precise flow monitoring in commercial water dispensers, coffee machines, and beverage vending systems.
  • Liquid consumption tracking and leak detection in residential and industrial water management systems.
  • Flow rate control in HVAC cooling circuits, solar thermal systems, and hydronic heating loops.
  • Process fluid monitoring for laboratory equipment, medical diagnostic devices, and chemical dosing pumps.
  • IoT-based smart agriculture systems for irrigation flow measurement and nutrient solution delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the output signal type of the HZ21WD sensor?

The HZ21WD provides flexible output options. It generates a digital pulse signal (Hall effect) proportional to flow rate, and also offers an analog voltage output. The high-level output is ≥4.5V, making it directly compatible with 5V microcontroller logic levels like Arduino.

Can this sensor be used with gases, or only liquids?

Yes, the sensor is suitable for monitoring both liquids and gases. Its turbine mechanism and sealed bearing design allow it to measure the flow rate of compatible, non-corrosive gases within its specified pressure limit (≤1.75 MPa). Ensure the gas is clean and dry to prevent damage.

How do I wire and power the sensor with an Arduino?

Connect the sensor's red wire to a 5V–12V DC source, black wire to GND. For digital pulse reading, connect the yellow signal wire to a digital interrupt pin on the Arduino. For analog reading, connect it to an analog input pin. Include a pull-up resistor if required by your specific model.

What is the accuracy and how do I calibrate it?

The sensor has a typical accuracy of 5–8%. Calibration involves measuring the sensor's pulse frequency (Hz) or analog output voltage against a known reference flow rate. Use the calculated K-factor (pulses per liter) in your microcontroller code to convert the signal into an accurate flow rate reading.

What are the installation requirements and pressure limits?

Install the sensor inline in a pipe section, ensuring flow direction matches the arrow on the housing. Use appropriate seals for your plumbing threads. The maximum working pressure is 1.75 MPa. Avoid water hammer and ensure the fluid is free of large debris to protect the internal turbine.
