Channel Master Features
 300, 600, 1200 kHz
2
Long Profiling Range
  • 300 kHz Channel Master matches or beats the maximum range AND minimum cell sizes of previous devices
  • And measures detailed flow structure though a range of 200-300 m across the river
3
Performance
  • Take advantage of RDI's high update rate**
    • While making decisions during floods
    • To avoid any biased results during changing flow conditions
    • (** >15 pings/second with 1200 kHz)
  • Measure with unmatched accuracy & stability
    • In very low velocity streams
    • Carrying high concentrations of solutes & pollutants
