Isco Non-Contact LaserFlow™ Velocity Sensor
The LaserFlow is ideal for a broad range of wastewater monitoring applications. It is compatible with both the Teledyne Isco Signature Flow Meter and the Teledyne Isco 2160 LaserFlow Module, depending on the type of installation.
During submerged conditions, flow measurement continues without interruption with optional Doppler Ultrasonic Area Velocity technology.
With its specially designed mounting bracket in place, the LaserFlow can be deployed and removed
from above ground, eliminating unsafe and timeconsuming confined space entry. A variety of communication options enable programming and data retrieval from a remote location. Information about data quality can be recorded and transmitted alongside the flow data.
