The SonTek 10-MHz ADV is designed for high-precision velocity measurements in laboratory, field, and oceanographic applications.
Features
Excellent low-flow performance
Velocity range 1 mm/s to 2.5 m/s
Sampling volume less than 0.2 cm3
Details:
The SonTek/YSI 10-MHz ADV (Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter) is a proven, accurate solution for high-precision, 3-axis (3D), velocity measurements in a wide variety of settings from the laboratory to the ocean. ADV performance has been shown to compare favorably with laser Doppler systems costing ten times as much. In addition, the ADV is extremely simple to set up and use. Most users are taking high quality data within minutes of receiving the system.
