  • Water Supply

 

Inspired by the need for a SIMPLE way to measure water velocity and level in open channels, the Argonaut-SL, (affectionately known as the Side-Looker) has earned worldwide acceptance as a long-term monitoring solution. Fully featured with accessories, mounting options, software, and a variety of integration formats, the Argonaut-SL fits your application in the way you need it to.

Designed specifically for side mounting on bridges, canal walls, or riverbanks, the SL’s SLEEK low-profile housing makes installation easy. With three models to choose from, the SL can be used in channels as small as you can jump across to rivers as wide as the Amazon.

Ultra narrow beam widths combined with unmatched side lobe suppression provide the SUPERIOR acoustic directivity necessary for achieving maximum horizontal range free of interference from surface or bottom boundaries.
