VIDEO DEMO
SCHEDULE DEMO- Versatile probe can be used in the lab or field
- Optional integrated pressure sensor for depth data
- Available extension cables in 1.5m, 3.5m, and 8.5m lengths
Overview
The Sontek FlowTracker2 ADV probe can be used in the field with the handheld display, or it can be used in the lab with direct PC connection. The ADV’s acoustic probe and processing electronics are housed in one small, lightweight, easily maneuverable unit, and the acoustic head has an optional, integrated pressure (depth) sensor.
Mechanics
Depth data are even correctable for dynamic pressure (Bernoulli) and altitude effects using SonTek’s patent-pending method. Setup of the probe and PC software is simple and mistake-proof. Just connect the cables between the probe and a laboratory PC or laptop, check a few settings, and press the “Start Logging” button. Data are output directly to a .CSV file that is immediately ready for use in the project, model, or database as required.
