Radar Water Level & Velocity Station – Non-Contact Water Level and Surface Velocity Monitoring System

Frankstar Radar Level Velocity Station adopts non-contact radar measurement technology to achieve high-precision, all-weather and automatic water level data collection for rivers, channels and other water bodies. It effectively overcomes the drawbacks of traditional contact sensors, such as siltation, icing, floating debris impact and biological fouling, ensuring long-term reliable data.

Integrated with a positioning system, 4G/5G communication and a high-efficiency solar power supply system, the Station enables long-term unattended operation in remote field environments without mains power or network coverage, greatly reducing operation and maintenance costs. Collected data is transmitted in real time to the monitoring center or cloud platform, providing a scientific basis for flood control, disaster mitigation, water resource management and ecological protection, while significantly improving emergency response efficiency and the safety of water conservancy facilities.

“Data is for reference only; actual conditions shall prevail.”

The Frankstar Radar Water Level & Velocity Station is an advanced non-contact monitoring system designed for real-time measurement of water level and surface flow velocity. Using radar sensing technology, the system can continuously monitor changing water conditions without direct contact with the water surface.

By integrating water level and surface velocity measurement into a single monitoring station, the system provides reliable hydrological data for river, canal, reservoir, and open channel monitoring. Its non-contact measurement principle reduces the impact of sediment, debris, floating objects, and harsh water conditions on the sensing equipment, making it suitable for long-term outdoor deployment.

The Radar Water Level & Velocity Station can support continuous data acquisition, remote monitoring, intelligent warning, and trend analysis. It is an effective solution for hydrological monitoring, flood early warning, water resource management, river flow monitoring, and water infrastructure management.
