Handheld ADV flow rate measuring instrument-FlowTracker2
Date:2017-04-18 13:19:52
FlowTracker can measure laboratory-precision flow velocity data with just a few clicks on the keys, making it the best measuring tool for daily flow detection and special hydrological applications.It has unparalleled low flow velocity and shallow water measurement functions, making it beyond the reach of traditional mechanical flow velocity meters; it can measure streams with a minimum flow velocity of 0.1cm/sec and a shallowest 2cm.FlowTracker is also suitable for water bodies with severe disturbances.

The flow measurement method and calculation program based on the USGS/ISO standard, after measuring the required data, you can automatically calculate the flow by just a tap of a key.Use the standard FlowTracker software to quickly download and report data.FlowTracker is specially designed for field measurement, and the instrument is equipped with a handheld operating display that can be easily mounted on the measuring rod and a portable ADV probe.












Application areas









●Natural streams ●Shallow-wide rivers ●Irrigation channels ●Weir plates/weat troughs ●Artificial channels ●Sewage discharge outlets ●Swamps ●Wetlands ●Mine channels

Built-in Smart QC intelligent quality control function can further ensure the accuracy and reliability of the data measured by FlowTracker.Quality control parameters are self-tested at each measurement and when a flow section measurement is completed. If any value exceeds the expected set indicator, the instrument will issue an alarm.All quality control indicators can be adjusted or cancelled.
