SF800 queries

Wotcha folks - am sat here looking puzzled at 2x Swissflow SF800 flowmeters.
Why? Because I've gone n' lost the piece of paper that came with them telling me which wire is which... and what the conversion factor is for pulse > lpm...

L'il help peas!

typically 6000 pulses / liter (mine is 6150 though)

so if your SF80 is 6000 pulses = 1L

100 Hz = 100 pulses/sec = 1LPM

if i remember it correctly the mid wire is for RPM

if you are going to hook it up to a CF633 type thingie with PPR=1 simply dividing the reading by 6000 gives you LPM

if you are hooking it up to a fan header on a mobo, divide the reading by 3000. or use Fan Type /3 in MBM5
mobo headers use divider /2 AFAIK
