Water Velocity Meter
This Micro-controller based Water Velocity Indicator has been designed to measure the Velocity of water in a flowing stream. It uses the latest Microchip's Micro-controller and can be used with any calibrated Water Current Meter. The velocity of water is calculated as per the calibration equation provided with the Sensor and displayed on the 16x2 LCD display. The Velocity Indicator consists of 4x1 tactile membrane keypad mounted on the front panel. You can save up to 56 readings. Two terminals to connect the different types of current meters sensor are provided on the top.
Precise Water Flow MeasurementWith a measurement range of 0.01 to 9.99 m/s and a resolution of 0.01 m/s, this indicator provides highly accurate velocity readings. The propeller sensor, combined with a digital LCD, ensures precise monitoring needed in professional hydrological applications.
Sturdy and Waterproof DesignThe probe is built from durable stainless steel and ABS plastic, and its IP67 rating ensures reliable usage in wet and challenging environments. The 15 m waterproof cable and connector make it suitable for wide and variable water bodies.
Easy Calibration and PortabilityThe indicator comes factory calibrated, but also allows field calibration to maintain accuracy. Its light weight and included carrying case make it ideal for field researchers who need to transport and use the device at multiple sites.
FAQs of Water Velocity Indicator:
Q: How does the Water Velocity Indicator measure water velocity?
A: The device uses a propeller (rotary) type sensor that rotates as water flows past it, converting motion into a digital reading displayed on the LCD. This allows for accurate and real-time measurement of water velocities.
Q: What is the recommended process for calibrating the instrument in the field?
A: While the indicator is factory calibrated, field calibration can be performed by following the user manuals specific calibration steps. This process involves setting a reference velocity and adjusting the device to ensure reading accuracy.
Q: When should field calibration be performed instead of relying on factory calibration?
A: Field calibration is recommended when the device is used in diverse environments or after extended periods between uses. It ensures precise measurements tailored to current site conditions and compensates for any environmental or usage changes.
Q: Where can the Water Velocity Indicator be used for optimal results?
A: The indicator is intended for hydrological surveys, environmental monitoring, and field research. Its waterproof probe and cable make it suitable for use in rivers, streams, canals, and other freshwater environments.
Q: What benefits does the portable design offer to users?
A: With a lightweight build (approx. 1.5 kg) and a carrying case, users can easily transport the device between sites. Its handheld operation and flexible cable enable quick setup and convenient measurements in remote or varied locations.
Q: How can users ensure reliable readings during operation?
A: Users should ensure that the probe and cable are fully submerged, regularly check calibration status, and operate within the specified temperature (0C to 55C) and humidity (0100% RH) ranges for optimal performance.
