    USH-9

    An ultrasonic sensor measuring snow depth without contact, up to 10 metres with millimetre resolution.

  • Snow water equivalent

    Snow scale SSG-2

    Weighs the snowpack on the centre one of seven panels and gives the snow water equivalent, without antifreeze.

    Measures water equivalent, density and the liquid water and ice content of the snowpack with sensor bands in the snow.

  • Discharge

    RQ-30+

    Radar measuring both level and surface velocity and calculating the flow in the sensor – with nothing in the water.

  • Surface velocity

    RG-30+

    Radar measuring the surface velocity of the water without touching it.

  • Water level

    RL-15 and RL-35

    Radar water level sensors with ±2 mm accuracy, mounted above the water surface.

Why buy SOMMER Messtechnik through FDS

  • Contact-free where possible

    Radar and ultrasound above the surface mean less maintenance and cope with ice, silt and high flows.

  • Complete stations

    Sensors, logger, power supply and telemetry in a station that copes with winter and floods.

  • Field service

    We service the stations, including in the mountains and at rivers that are hard to reach.
