Product Overview
An acoustic Doppler meter reads both how fast the water moves and how deep it runs. The Argonaut-SW does it with two angled beams for horizontal velocity and one vertical beam for level, working at 3 MHz in water less than 3 meters deep.
Key Features
- 3 MHz acoustic frequency
- Two angled beams for 2-D horizontal velocity
- One vertical beam for water level
- For water less than 3 meters deep
- RS-232 and SDI-12 communication
- 4 MB internal recorder and a temperature sensor
- Multi-pin circular connector on the housing end
Applications
- Replacing a failed Argonaut-SW at an irrigation canal or culvert gauging site
- Keeping a spare sensor for a stream or stormwater monitoring network built on SDI-12 loggers
- Teaching acoustic flow measurement in a hydrology lab
Frequently Asked Questions
Is a cable included?
Not included.
Can it log to an SDI-12 data logger?
Yes. It communicates over SDI-12 as well as RS-232, and it also has a 4 MB internal recorder.
Is it sold as the meter alone, as removed from service?
Yes. It was functional when removed from service and comes without cables, software or accessories.
