Argonaut-SW Overview

Argonaut-SW

Ideal for monitoring flows in small channels from 1 ft (0.3 m) to 16 ft (5 m) deep, the Argonaut-SW (Shallow Water) offers advanced Doppler performance for sites previously thought impossible to measure. Typically mounted on the bottom of a channel, stream, or pipe, the SW measures water level and vertically-integrated velocity, making it ideal for sites with reversing or stratified flow conditions.

Features:

External Data Display
