Pump Device

Device Category: pump

The Pump device represents a water or fluid pump with functionality for flow control, monitoring, and energy tracking.

Required Channels

These channels are mandatory for the functionality of the pump:

Channel	Description	Multiple	Details
`switcher`	Represents binary switches to control devices like lights, fans, or appliances.	No	See details
`device_information`	Provides metadata about the device, including manufacturer details, model information, and operational statuses.	No	See details

These channels are optional and provide additional features:

Channel	Description	Multiple	Details
`flow`	Monitors the rate of fluid or air flow, typically measured in cubic meters per hour (m3/h).	No	See details
`electrical_energy`	Measures the total energy consumption over time, typically reported in kilowatt-hours (kWh).	No	See details
`electrical_power`	Reports real-time power metrics such as voltage, current, and wattage for monitoring and diagnostics.	No	See details
`leak`	Identifies the presence of water or other liquids to detect leaks and prevent damage.	No	See details
`pressure`	Reports atmospheric or liquid pressure values, typically measured in pascals (kPa).	No	See details

Pump Control:
- Turn the pump on or off using the switcher channel. Monitor flow rate when available.
Flow Monitoring:
- Track fluid flow rate and pressure for system health monitoring.
Leak Detection:
- Detect leaks in the pumping system to prevent water damage.
