Why choose· 01

Built for your duty.

Application-specific selection

rivers, canals, drainage channels, stormwater outfalls and open water points that need level plus flow estimation

Technical configuration window

Range class, output, materials and accessories are presented as configurable options so WELK can match the page to the real process data before quotation.

Configuration before quotation

Channel shape, mounting angle, flow direction, water-surface condition, bridge clearance and calculation method must be reviewed before quoting.

Limits kept visible

Open-water flow accuracy depends on site hydraulics. For custody or regulated measurement, provide drawings and expected calibration method.

Product details· 02

How it is selected & specified.

Radar Flow & Level Meter for Open Water is presented as a WELK Level configurable product family, not as a single fixed catalogue code. The page focuses on realistic selection logic, installation limits and RFQ data that should be checked before quotation.

FAQ· 06

Radar Flow & Level Meter for Open Water questions.

Is this the same as a tank radar?

No. A flow package needs level, velocity and channel calculation logic. A tank radar measures level only.

What site data is required?

Send channel width, depth, profile, mounting height, flow direction, expected velocity and whether a rating curve already exists.

What should I send for a quotation?

Send medium, measuring range, installation drawing or photo, process connection, output signal, power supply, environment and any certificate or document requirement.

Are final specifications fixed from this page?

No. Final range, accuracy, material, pressure, temperature, output and approval wording are confirmed from the selected order configuration.
