Measuring Water in Motion and Motion in Water RD Instruments Home of the ADCP Channel Master HADCP

Measuring Water in Motion and Motion in Water RD Instruments Home of the ADCP Horizontal Profiling New 2-beam Horizontal ADCP delivering the proven advantages of RDI's Broadband profiling technology to velocity, stage, discharge monitoring

Measuring Water in Motion and Motion in Water RD Instruments Home of the ADCP Channel Master (pic)

Measuring Water in Motion and Motion in Water RD Instruments Home of the ADCP Why Horizontal Profiling? Permits monitoring changes in distribution of flow (across section)--much more than a spot reading of river speed Permits monitoring changes in distribution of flow (across section)--much more than a spot reading of river speed More complete analysis & interpretation of flows and their effects More complete analysis & interpretation of flows and their effects Better decisions … seeing how flow is distributed permits more-informed decisions Better decisions … seeing how flow is distributed permits more-informed decisions

Measuring Water in Motion and Motion in Water RD Instruments Home of the ADCP Channel Master Continues RDI's 20-year tradition of providing Superior value & Trusted service Continues RDI's 20-year tradition of providing Superior value & Trusted service Simple operation, versatile applications Simple operation, versatile applications Superior capabilities… delivers much more than a number Superior capabilities… delivers much more than a number RDI's measuring sticks RDI's measuring sticks Performance Performance Quality Quality Reliability Reliability Service / Support Service / Support
