Redundant/Back-Up Data

A PRECISION water level measuring instrument using radar pulses to measure levels without direct contact with water, the RLR can be located on a bridge, pier or any structure over the water’s surface.

Unlike Radar Level Sensors, Sutron’s RADAR LEVEL RECORDER IS A LOGGING SENSOR - RECORDING DATA AT USER-SELECTED INTERVALS. Its 6-button, 2- line LCD front panel allows easy access to set-up, data and adjustments. Laptop, desktop, and pocket PCs can retrieve data downloads via an RLR command line.
