55 Argonaut-SWs for Orellanas Canals (Spain)

San Diego, California, January 14, 2004 – SonTek/YSI and Qualitas Instruments of Madrid, Spain have been awarded a contract to supply 55 Argonaut-SW Acoustic Doppler Flowmeters to the Comunidad General de Regantes del Canal de Orellana.

55 Argonaut-SW Flowmeters for Orellanas Canals (Spain)

The goal of the project, partially funded by the Spanish Agricultural Administration, is to modernize Spain's irrigation areas and to improve water use. The initial shipment of flowmeters will be used in the renovation of canals less than 3-m deep.

A SonTek spokesperson stated "Following the Argonaut-SW’s winning of the 'Best New Product Award' at the International Irrigation Show, this contract is a major stepping stone in the worldwide acceptance of the Argonaut’s advanced acoustic Doppler technology product line into the agricultural industry."

The Argonaut-SW is a self-contained, highly-compact unit used for measuring water flow, velocity, and level. Typically used in canals, pipes, and natural streams, the SW is designed to account for velocity variations within the channel to produce the most accurate flow calculation possible.
