Controlling a return pump with P4 and flow sensor

[VJV]

Hi, I was wondering if I could use my P4 and flow sensors to control my DC return pump, whereby I would set a certain target flow and the P4 would automatically adjust the power to ensure the flow stays constant.

Many thanks and kind regards

Did you end up doing this? Seems like it could be interesting.

Tony,
I just set up a RD100 return using this method. Works great!

In the ens I did not. It sounds like a good idea but did not get around to implement it

Interesting, do you have a post describing the setup?
