Flowmeter Open Channel (Non-Contact)
Raven-Eye®
The RAVEN-EYE® is the new non-contact RADAR area/velocity flow meter for open channel flow measurements from Flow-Tronic. It combines state of the art non-contact measuring technology which measures flow from above the water surface with easy integration into existing SCADA or telemetry systems.
Radar area/velocity flow sensors have been in use for many years, so why is the RAVEN-EYE® so revolutionary? Using the latest design, development and production methods, has allowed Flow-Tronic to manufacture a high quality new generation radar sensor at a price that will make it your first choice for open channel and sewer flow measurement, but affordability is only one of the RAVEN-EYE®’s benefits.
The name was not chosen at random, like the bird, the Raven-Eye has three key attributes: Intelligence, Adaptability, Survivability.
