RADAR
SENSORS
BEST IN CLASS ACCURACY
Streamflow, or discharge, is the volume of water moving down a stream or river per unit of time, commonly expressed in cubic meters/feet per second or litres/gallons per day. Because stream discharge cannot be measured directly, it must be computed from parameters that can be measured directly, including water level/stage, velocity and the stream or river-bed profile.
With the introduction of radar level/stage and velocity sensors, it is now possible to continuously monitor and therefore calculate discharge using solid state technology. FTS offers a variety of both types of sensors to suite your specific needs.
Radar Enclosure
Fitted specifically for the FTS Radar Stage Sensor, the enclosure ensures that your equipment is safe from external debris and environmental hazards.
