The Eno Scientific flow meter is designed to measure water flow for monitoring well drawdown and usage. It uses a modular design consisting of a PVC housing and an electronic sensor module that easily attaches to the housing using a hand tightened ring nut. With the sensor in place, electrical pulses are generated as water moves past the paddle wheel which can be interpreted as water volume by an Eno Scientific Well Sounder or other device. When the test is complete, the sensor can be removed and replaced with an inexpensive plug using the same kind of hand tightened ring nut. This leaves the sensor port available for future testing.
The electronic sensor operates off a 5-24VDC power supply and provides an output voltage on the signal line which switches between Vin and ground as the paddle wheel turns. The sensor is available in two configurations, with a plugged cable ready to plug into the Well Sounder, or with three wire leads for connection to other devices such as a logger. Note that external power is required in the 3 wire configuration.
**NOTE: To use the WS 131 Flow Meter with the Well Sounder, an Accessory Splitter must be used
***Flow sensors are only compatible with Well Sounder 2010 PRO, Not Well Watch 600 Series.
