Water Flow Sensor YF designed for applications where accurate detection of inlet water flow is required

Integrate stable water flow sensing into heating and pump systems with YF-B6 Water Flow Sensor

 

Water Flow Sensor YF (YF-B6) is a water flow sensor designed for applications where accurate detection of inlet water flow is required, particularly in fully automatic gas water heaters. Its structure consists of a metal valve body, a water flow rotor assembly, and an integrated Hall sensor.

 

KEY FEATURES:
 

  • Hall Sensor-Based: The sensor uses a Hall sensor to detect the rotation of a magnetic rotor, generating NPN pulse signals directly proportional to the water flow speed
  • Proportional Output: The number of pulses generated by the Hall sensor allows a controller to accurately determine the water flow rate
  • Durable Construction: Built with a metal valve body to withstand demanding environments
  • Wide Operating Conditions: Operates with an allowable operating temperature up to 80°C, a humidity tolerance of 35%–90%RH (non-condensing), and a maximum water pressure of 1.75MPa
  • Power Supply: Requires a power supply of 3.5–24V

 

APPLICATIONS:
 

  • Used in fully automatic gas water heaters to measure and manage water flow for reliable operation
  • Used to precisely measure and manage water flow in various systems
  • Any equipment or appliance with water inlet that requires accurate water flow detection for efficient operation
