The OTT RLS, non-contact radar level sensor with pulse radar technology
is ideal for monitoring in remote or hard to reach locations. The RLS
accurately and efficiently measures surface water level. Approximately
16 individual measurements are conducted each second and averaged after
20 seconds to minimize the influences of waves.
The OTT RLS offers a large measurement range with a small blanking distance
and narrow beam width. The sensor is easily connected to most any data
logger via standardized communication interfaces. The RLS has extremely
low power consumption and is ideal for remote or solar powered sites.
Users' Benefits:
- Simple setup – no need for additional software, communicates
via standard SDI-12 commands
- Versatile – easily mounts to a bridge, frame, pipeline,
or extension arm
- Compact – transmitting and receiving antenna enclosed
in a light weight durable housing with flat antenna design
- Flexible – connects to most data loggers via standard
communication interfaces
- Design – unobtrusive appearance designed specifically
for surface water level measurements
- Low maintenance – non-contact measuring principle, no
need to enter the water
Features:
- Accurate – meets USGS guidelines for water level accuracy,
and will not drift over time
- Fast – water level measurements available every 20 seconds
- Performance – unaffected by air temperature, wave action,
humidity, flood events, floating debris, or contaminated water
- System integration – supports standardized communication
interfaces: SDI-12, 4-20 mA and RS-485
- Low power consumption – Impulse radar technology requires
only 12 mA @ 12V
- Installation – mounts to slanted surfaces
- Light weight – weighs less than 5 pounds
