The FLOWATCH is a portable velocity meter for measuring water currents, air movement and temperature in field applications. Interchangeable water and air impellers allow one handheld instrument to support stream surveys, irrigation-channel measurements, hydrological studies and ventilation testing.

Benefits

  • Water and air velocity measurement

  • Instantaneous, maximum and average readings

  • Interchangeable 60 mm water and 20 mm air impellers

  • Telescoping probe included

  • Optional 15 m hanging sensor

  • Portable, weather-resistant field kit

FLOWATCH Applications

Portable velocity measurements for water-current studies, open channels, wastewater systems, and air-movement testing.

River & Streamflow

Measure water velocity during stream surveys, discharge studies, and routine surface-water assessments.

Irrigation Channels

Check velocity in canals, ditches, and other open channels used for irrigation and water distribution.

Tidal & Marine Currents

Evaluate directional water movement near shorelines, estuaries, docks, and tidal waterways.

Wastewater Drainage

Perform spot velocity measurements in accessible wastewater channels, drainage systems, and outfalls.

Ventilation Ducts

Measure air velocity in ventilation openings and ductwork for field checks and system assessments.

HVAC Airflow Testing

Verify air movement around air-conditioning equipment, vents, and building mechanical systems.
