Product Description
Cup Type Water Current Meter offered by our company is used for determining the correct velocities of flowing water in canals, open channels, rivers, streams, etc. This is accessible with many advanced features. Cup Type Water Current Meter has a yoke frame that protects the moving assembly from the occurring damage. It can work very well in several types of work surrounds. It has advanced sensing feature and is proffered with high utility and accuracy, when it comes to measure the current flowing in water.
Cup type water current meter specifications include velocity range, often 0.1 to 5 m/s, with accuracy up to 1-2%. Materials vary from brass and gunmetal to stainless steel for durability. They use a magnetic and reed switch sensor for each cup wheel rotation, with outputs sent to a separate counter or data logger to calculate velocity using a calibrated formula.
Key Specifications
- Velocity Range: The range for water velocity measurement, for example, from 0.1 to 3.5 m/s or 0.3 to 5 m/s.
- Accuracy: Typically 1-2% of full scale, depending on the model and velocity.
- Material: Common materials include stainless steel, brass, and gunmetal, chosen for corrosion resistance.
- Sensor Type: A 6-cup wheel is standard, often with a magnetic and reed switch assembly to generate a pulse signal for each revolution.
- Calibration: Meters are factory calibrated, and a known formula (V=KN+Y) is used with the sensors pulse rate and constants to determine velocity.
- Application: Used for direct measurement of water velocity in rivers, canals, and open channels for calculating discharge.
