(MENAFN- PR Newswire)
SACRAMENTO, Calif., Nov. 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- As warming temperatures decrease reservoir and river levels, they are leading to heavy rainfall and flooding in other areas. To support water management organizations with reliable real-time data, KISTERS has released the HyQuant L , an affordable water level radar sensor.

KISTERS HyQuant L water level radar sensor
Accuracy and precision make the instrument ideal for monitoring flashy water levels in streams, rivers, irrigation, and open stormwater canals. The sensor's frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar achieves a much better signal-to-noise ratio unlike older pulse radar technology.
Interest in radar has grown over time but pricing has slowed adoption of this technology until now. " HyQuant L is part of an effort to help all vulnerable communities monitor risks in real time and support decision-makers," said Matt Ables, CEO at KISTERS North America, "We saw the need for affordable high-performance water radars from our flood control and forecasting partners. Likewise, our reservoir operations and hydropower generation customers can expand their hydromet networks."
Inches thicker than a 4x6 inch picture frame and weighing 2.5 pounds, HyQuant L is intended to be positioned above interference from debris in water. The design keeps hydrologic technicians safe, out of the water, especially with dangerous conditions like fast-moving water. Mounted on a bridge, arms or outriggers, the small sensor is less obvious to would-be vandals.
Key benefits of the
