Liquid Flow Meter - Brass 1/2" Nominal Threaded
Inline brass flow meter with a Hall-effect pinwheel sensor; each pulse represents approximately 2 mL of flow. Outputs digital pulses on a yellow wire (5–18 V supply). Not a precision instrument — calibrate carefully if better than 10% accuracy is needed.
