About the S5
- 01
The S5 is a high-performance 5-beam ADCP engineered for inland, offshore and complex water environments. Leveraging advanced acoustic Doppler technology, it delivers precision velocity and discharge measurements even in high-velocity and highsediment conditions—the ultimate tool for smart hydrology and environmental monitoring.
