Universal Propeller Water Current Meter

The Universal Current Meter by Lakshmi Engineering Works is a precision instrument designed for accurate water velocity measurements in natural and engineered water bodies such as rivers, canals, and pipelines. Housed in a compact, durable body measuring 16.4 x 7.8 x 4.9 cm, it combines portability with rugged performance.

Key Features:

• Versatile Applications: Ideal for wading, suspension, and cableway setups using 20 mm diameter rods or suspension devices.
• High Accuracy: Each unit is calibrated in a high-precision rating tank with velocity resolutions as fine as 0.001 mm/s, covering a velocity range from 0.005 m/s to 8.0 m/s.
• Fan Variety: Compatible with four stainless steel fan types for different velocity conditions (from 0.025 m/s up to 10.0 m/s).
• Robust Sensor System: Encapsulated reed switch delivers one impulse per fan revolution, ensuring reliable signal transmission.
• ISO Certified Calibration: Calibrated to AS 3778.6.3-1992, identical to ISO 3455:1976, with traceability to international standards.
• Accessories Included: Comes with multiple rod segments, counter options (e.g., CMC20A), spare parts, and maintenance tools.

The LEW Current Meter is a world recognised design instrument for measuring the velocity of water in shallow natural water courses, rivers, canals, and pipe line. The provides solutions for all velocitymeasuring applications.One of the great features of the is it can be used with 20 mm diameter wading rod and relocating device, streamlined suspension tube, portable winches and permanent cableway installations, with streamlined or ground feeling weights. A tail fin assembly is provided to control directionalstability during suspended measurements.
