Dear All,
I successfully installed a FLS02-F2 gas probe on a Krom Schroder BK-G4 (picture 1 and 2). http://s76.photobucket.com/user/Marieline/media/Picture1_zpsvmijeiid.jpg...

Now I would like to get readings from a Schlumberger G4 (1997) meter (picture 3) too.

Unlike the BK-G4, this meter doesn’t have a ‘volume per pulse’-indication on it (e.g. 1imp=0.001m³). Judging by other topics I read on this forum, I guess that a FLM equipped with a FLS02-F2 gas probe won’t work for this kind of meter cause it does not contain a magnet or pulse option? Instead I should use an opto-reflective sensor, but this is not (yet) available in the shop?
Kind regards,
Marieline
If there is a little mirror on a counter roll any optical sensor will do, e.g. a TCRT5000 as proposed in https://www.flukso.net/content/watermeter-possible-solution - get it on ebay or any other electronic supplier that offers "Arduino sensors", e.g. adafruit industries, seeed studio, exp-tech etc. etc. etc. - G++gle is your friend.
@Marieline We're nearly there. Production of a first batch has been completed. Some of the opto-reflective sensors are now running in test. Once that phase is completed, it's documentation time.
