💡 Flow Smart, Live Smart!
The DIGITEN G1 Water Flow Hall Effect Sensor Switch is a high-performance flow meter designed for precise measurement of water flow rates between 1 to 60 liters per minute. With robust pressure tolerance and compatibility with various systems, it’s the ideal choice for tech-savvy professionals seeking reliable data in real-time.

Works fine but restricts the flow
Excellent for the price, but it it has its limitations. As other reviewers wrote, it restricts the flow. I wouldn't want to use it if a water line larger than 1/2 inch is needed. Calibration appears to be within about 5% from 0.5 gpm to 4 gpm. Below 0.5 gpm calibration falls off quickly. I showed an 18% error at 0.38 gpm. I didn't test it above 4.28 gpm which is all I got through my 1/2" hose.

works well for my application
It works well for my application.I set up a solar water heater for my pool controlled by a Raspberry Pi. I am using it to provide relative flow rates while making minor adjustments to the actuator/valve, so I can provide a variable flow that is always a constatnt temperature higher than my pool temp.Not sure how accurate it is, but I do know that the value of 450 pulses/liter for the 1" as stated in the ad is not correct . If F=4.8 * L/M, then pulses/liter should be 4.8*60 or 288 which is the value that I am using, but I still suspect it is too high. Will have to write some code to allow me to calibrate it.Had it in my system for about a month now, no complaintsUpdate 6/4/2018.After adding 2 more solar panels, I am getting a max flow rate of 45 liters/min. Still running fine. but does deveop a louder hum at the higher flow rates. In addition at this increased flow rate I believe that it may have become a bottleneck considering the pump size that I am using to pump the water up around 25 feet to the solar panel.

Works well. Good price.
I bought this sensor as an Arduino input to control my home's water pump. So far so good.

Failed within 1 year
Worked great for 11.5 months with a RPI. Unfortunately it failed at 11.5 months with minimal use. When starting the flow it rattles around until the paddle wheel gets stuck. I need very low flow rates so it still flows water for me, but I wouldn't buy again.I'll have to drain the system to eliminate this part at some point.

Watch out since the internal bore is smaller that what you would expect. If you want a 1" order the next bigger size to avoid obstruction.

Good meter at great price
Good product with good accuracy. Pressure drop across the meter was minimal.

inlet seems to be same as 3/4"
I purchased the 3/4 and 1" models. I was thinking of using the 1" to push more water through. However looking at it from the end, it chokes down to 3/4" so both are the same size internally.
