Continuous Flow Measurement Ensures Efficient Use of Water

The Argonaut-SW® (Shallow Water) is a self-contained, highly-compact unit used for measuring water flow, velocity, and level. Typically used in canals, pipes, and natural streams, the SW is designed to account for velocity variations within the channel to produce the most accurate flow calculation possible.

Using advanced acoustic Doppler technology, the Argonaut-SW can measure water less than 3 meters deep.
