Flow Probe Hand-held Flowmeter

Ideal for storm run-off studies or flow measurings of rivers, streams, canals, and sewers. Incorporates true velocity averaging for the most accurate measurement possible.
The probe shaft is available in lengths that extend from 3' to 6' and from 5' to 15'.
Located on the bottom tip is a protected Turbo-Prop sensor which uses the most advanced positive displacement technique available.
For minimal friction, this 2" Turbo-Prop sensor rotates freely on a bearing shaft with no mechanical interconnections.

Magnetic material in the propeller passes a pickup coil in the housing producing electrical impulses. These electrical impulses are then carried by wire to a readout display on top of the handle. This readout display amplifies and converts the signal into feet/meters per second readings. Instantaneous velocity and true average velocity are then displayed.

A unique two-button keypad allows other functions to be displayed including maximum velocity, time-of-day, stop watch, totalizer for batch flows, and RPM for accurate low velocity measurement. Features a padded gun-type carrying case and long life watch-type batteries for readout display (no battery required for Turbo-Prop). Probe can be extended up to 25' with standard PVC pipe and electrical extension cable.
