WL_M microwave water level height sensor

WL_M microwave water level height sensor

Measurement of water level

The WL_M is designed to provide precise and reliable water level measurements using advanced microwave sensing technology. The same hardware configuration is used for all applications – monitoring groundwater, rivers, and reservoirs. A dedicated algorithm for various applications can be achieved by simply changing the firmware.

Key Features

  • Microwave-Based Sensing: The WL-M sensor uses microwave technology to measure water levels without physical contact, maintaining high precision across different environmental scenarios
  • Dual Measurement Capability: Suitable for both hydrological and meteorological applications, the WL-M sensor provides accurate data for water levels, making it versatile for year-round monitoring
  • High Accuracy in Challenging Conditions: With exceptional sensitivity, the WL_M sensor performs reliably even in areas affected by debris, ice, or dense snowfall
  • Robust, Weather-Resistant Design: Designed for long-term outdoor use, the WL_M sensor can withstand harsh conditions, including extreme temperatures, humidity, and exposure to wind or snow
  • Seamless System Integration: Like other MPS sensors, the WL_M easily integrates with various data loggers and monitoring systems, enabling real-time data acquisition and remote monitoring

The WL-M Microwave Water Level aHeight Sensor is the ideal solution for professionals needing a versatile, non-contact sensor for accurate measurement of water levels height in dynamic environments.
