The VMT1 measures velocity in open channels or round pipes by transmitting an ultrasonic signal into the body of water. The transmitted wave is then reflected back to the sensor, and velocity is calculated using the two wave frequencies.

Features

• Ultrasonic Doppler velocity sensor for average velocity
• Can be combined with a level sensor measurement to calculate flow rate
• Accuracy is +2% of reading
