Argonaut-SL Family
(1500, 3000, 500)

SL Application |
Easily installed on a riverbank, bridge abutment, or other vertical
structure, the sleek, low-profile SonTek/YSI Argonaut-SL (Side-Looking) current meters
use an advanced Doppler sonar
for precise water velocity flow measurement. Robust, all-digital signal
processing ensures reliable data collection within a user-programmable
velocity cell extending
from 0.1 m (SL3000 system) up
to 120 m (SL500 system). With three models to choose from, the SL
can be used in channels small enough to jump across to rivers as wide as
the Amazon.
Ultra-narrow beam widths combined with unmatched side lobe
suppression provide the superior acoustic directivity needed to achieve
maximum horizontal range free of surface/bottom boundary interference.
Options (details below) for an external real-time LCD Flow Display, external battery
pack, wave spectra output, analog data output, Modbus interface, and YSI EcoNet telemetry extend
the capability of the SL product family to a wide variety of
applications. Our
FlowPack velocity-index discharge
rating software (a $1,400 value) is now included FREE with the purchase
of an Argonaut-SL system. |
