Description
Descripción
With the mobile measuring device RP-30 (Radar Profiler) a surface velocity profile from rivers and channels is created and together with the data of the river cross-section and water level the discharge is determined. – A very helpful measuring device especially for the use in flood conditions.
FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES
- Portable mobile measuring system
- Simple mounting on cable cranes, bridge railings or tripods
- Suitable for flood conditions and high flow velocities
- Non-contact radar measuring technology
- No threat from debris or driftwood
- Calculation of discharge with known water level and cross section profile
- Easy operator controls and handling
- Remote data transmission via Bluetooth
- Measuring range from +/- 0.10 to +/- 15 m/s (depending on the flow conditions)
