ADCP-1200K
5-Beams Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) 1.2MHz
The ADCP-1200K Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler adopts piston array technology and works on the acoustic Doppler principle. Fitted with an extra central depth sounding beam, it outputs accurate real-time data including flow velocity, discharge, water level and water temperature. Delivering stable and outstanding performance in shallow river channels and low-flow velocity conditions, it serves as an optimal choice with high quality, reliable performance and favorable cost efficiency.
This instrument is capable of measuring real-time velocity profile, water depth and cross-section discharge. It can be rapidly installed on telemetry boats and trimarans to conduct navigational surveys. Compatible with external auxiliary devices such as GNSS modules and radio stations, it realizes remote telemetry data transmission. It supplies precise and credible data support for hydrological surveys, flood early warning systems, water diversion projects, water environment monitoring, smart agriculture, smart water utilities and other related fields.
