Flowmeter

COMPONENTS

Time-fill water valves look like pressure-fill valves, but have tight part tolerances to insure consistent water levels. Time-fill valves can replace pressure-fill valves, but pressure-fill valves can’t replace time-fill valves.

Dishwashers use a flowmeter to provide more accurate water filling. An impeller mounted magnet activates a reed switch.

Flowmeters are rated:

3.8 – 14 VDC, 1 ma

2.5 L / min, 0.5 – 10 bar

208 output pulses per liter

An arrow on the back of the flowmeter shows the water flow direction.
