Introduction

The RIV-F5 series is a newly launched five-beam ADCP. The system can provide accurate and reliable data like current velocity, flow, water level, and temperature in real time, effectively used for flood warning systems, water transfer projects, water environment monitoring, smart agriculture, and smart water services. The system is equipped with a five-beam transducer. A 160m additional central sounding beam is added to strengthens the bottom tracking ability for special environments such as waters with high sediment content, and the sampling data is also getting more accurate and stable data.

Even in complex waters environment with high turbidity and high flow velocity, this product is still able to have a excellent performance, which is comparable to the best international similar products, It is the best choice for high-quality, high-performance and cost-effective ADCP.

The Frankstar RIV-F Series Five-beam Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) is a specialized hydrographic measurement instrument engineered for civil water resources management, river discharge monitoring, and environmental protection. Specially designed for rivers, irrigation channels, reservoirs, and open-water applications, it combines four inclined profiling beams with a dedicated vertical central sounding beam, ensuring superior bottom-tracking accuracy and reliable depth soundings even in high-sediment, high-turbidity, and high-velocity environments.

Key Features:
1. 5-Beam Transducer Configuration: Features a 5th central vertical beam to enhance bottom tracking capability and precise depth measurement in challenging riverbeds.
2. High-Precision Acoustic Profiling: Delivers stable and accurate water velocity and discharge calculations across varying depth sections.
3. Integrated Multi-Sensors: Built-in tilt/motion sensor, electronic compass, and temperature sensor for automated dynamic tilt compensation.
4. Flexible Platform Integration: Seamlessly connects with GNSS/GPS, radio telemetry, unmanned surface vessels (USVs), and trimaran hulls for mobile river surveying.
5. Smart Hydro Telemetry: Supports real-time data transmission to local water conservancy platform or cloud server for flood early-warning systems and smart water management.
