Propeller type Water Current Meter

The propeller type water current meters are popularly used to measure velocity of water flow ranging from 0.3 to 3.5 meters per second (also available in measuring range up to 6 meters per second). These meters have a bucket wheel assembly, which is mounted upon a shaft with permanent magnet that rotates in response to the fluid flow. Then the rotating shaft produces a magnetic current through which signal is formed proportional to the fluid flow velocity. Fluid velocity is determined by counting the number of revolutions of the bucket wheel over a given period of time. These water current meter can be suspended by means of a cable and wading rod form overhead structure.



Rugged and Versatile Design

Constructed with stainless steel and reinforced with a durable carrying case, this Propeller Type Water Current Meter is engineered to withstand harsh environments. Its lightweight and corrosion-resistant materials support prolonged field use, ensuring longevity and reliable performance whether deployed in rivers, streams, or laboratory flumes.


Accurate and Immediate Readings

With a high-precision propeller mechanism, the meter delivers immediate velocity measurements with an outstanding 2% accuracy over a broad speed range. The mechanical counter records revolutions directly, translating them into digital velocity readings with a fine 0.01 m/s resolution, supporting confident decision-making in hydrological studies.


Flexible Deployment Options

Supporting suspension by cable, wading rod, or bridge mount, this current meter adapts effortlessly to diverse field scenarios. The standard 15 m cable can be customized up to 30 m, allowing measurements in deeper or remote locations, while manual control provides users with operational flexibility.

FAQs of Propeller Type Water Current Meter:


Q: How is the Propeller Type Water Current Meter typically installed and operated?

A: The meter is mounted using its suspension cable, wading rod, or bridge support, depending on the measurement site. Once positioned at the desired location and depth (up to 20 meters underwater), users operate the device manually and read water velocity from the built-in mechanical counter.

Q: What environments is this current meter suitable for measuring water velocity?

A: This instrument is engineered for both field and laboratory measurements. Its rugged, corrosion-resistant build and complete humidity adaptation (0-100% RH) make it ideal for outdoor river, canal, and stream studies, as well as controlled flow tanks in research labs.

Q: When should the calibration certificate be referenced or renewed?

A: Each unit is supplied with an individual calibration certificate, verifying measurement accuracy. It is advisable to reference the certificate before first use and arrange recalibration annually or after extensive fieldwork to ensure the highest level of accuracy.

Q: What are the benefits of having a customizable cable length?

A: The standard 15 m cable provides ample reach for most applications, but customization up to 30 m allows users to measure in deeper or inaccessible water bodies, greatly expanding the instruments flexibility and application range.

Q: Where is the best location to use this water current meter for maximum reliability?

A: For optimal results, deploy the device in open, unobstructed water flows, such as rivers or flumes, where the propeller can rotate freely. Avoid placing it near debris or dense vegetation to ensure consistent and accurate velocity readings.

Q: What is the process for taking a water velocity measurement with this device?

A: Set up the meter at the desired depth and position using your preferred mounting method. The propeller rotates as water flows past, and each revolution is recorded by the mechanical counter, providing an immediate, digital velocity reading with high accuracy and fine resolution.

Q: What notable benefits does this current meter offer for exporters, manufacturers, and suppliers from India?

A: Manufactured in India, this current meter offers robust construction, portability, and internationally competitive accuracy, making it an attractive choice for global hydrological equipment markets seeking dependable and cost-effective solutions.
