Hach Flo-Dar Sensor Assembly Svs, MODEL 4000-430

Description

The FLO-DAR AV Sensor provides an ideal solution for non-contact, maintenance-free portable or permanent sewer flow monitoring. Flo-Dar Svs incorporating Doppler Radar and Electromagnetic velocity sensors with Ultrasonic depth sensors for use in Open Channel Surcharge flow applications. Portable Flo-Logger optional. FLO-DAR provides the user with highly accurate flow measurements under a wide range of flows and site conditions. By measuring the velocity of the fluid from above, FLO-DAR eliminates accuracy problems inherent with submerged sensors including sensor disturbances, high solids content and distribution of reflectors. As the sensor is mounted above the flow, personnel have little or no contact with the flow during installation. Future sensor removal and replacement can be done without the need for confined space entry. Operates in the most difficult conditions including flows with high solids content, high temperature, shallow and caustic flows, large man-made channels, and high velocities up to 20 ft/s. No lost data with non-contact, above the flow sensor that is unaffected by fouling due to debris and grease. FLO-DAR sensor accuracy and long-term stability (up to 3 years without need for site calibration) from low flow depths up to surcharge conditions has been independently verified many times over the years, including a formal evaluation by the Alden Research Laboratory, Inc. and recent field evaluations done by municipalities and consulting engineering firms. During surcharge events FLO-DAR’s optional SVS electromagnetic sensor will continue to provide uninterrupted and accurate flow monitoring through dry and wet weather flows without the need for routine sensor cleaning or maintenance.
