New breakthrough in flash flood channel water level meter: technical innovation and application advantages of buried and side-mounted equipment

As a natural flood discharge channel for floods after heavy rains and melting of ice and snow in mountainous areas, a sudden increase in water volume in a short period of time can easily cause disasters. Accurately monitoring the changes in ditch water levels has become a core link in flood prevention and control work. With technological innovation and performance upgrades, underground water level gauges and side-mounted mountain torrent channel water accumulation meters have built a solid line of defense for mountain torrent warning.

Underground water Level gauge: Iteration of monitoring technology from cities to mountainous areas

The underground water level gauge is derived from the monitoring application of low-lying areas in cities. On the basis of retaining the advantages of composite perception, it realizes technical upgrades for the complex environment of mountainous areas. The equipment adopts a "triple composite perception system" with three sets of sensors, conductivity, static pressure, and ultrasonic, working together. It can not only track the rise and fall of water levels in real time, but also simultaneously analyze the conductivity characteristics, density and other parameters of water bodies, providing multi-dimensional data support for flood prevention decisions. In terms of durability, its shell is made of high-strength alloy material and treated with wear-resistant technology to withstand the violent impact of mountain torrents carrying sand and gravel; the built-in large-capacity long-lasting lithium battery combined with low-power chips can last for several months on a single charge, completely solving the problem of difficult power supply and maintenance in mountainous areas. In terms of data transmission, through mature wireless technology, water level information can be transmitted back to the flood control command center in real time and stably.

Side-mounted water accumulation meter: a precise monitoring expert with flexible deployment

The side-mounted mountain torrent channel water accumulation meter is derived from the extension of urban municipal road monitoring technology. It is also equipped with six-channel high-precision conductivity, ultrasonic and static pressure sensors, which can be flexibly installed on the side wall of the channel to accurately capture key information such as water depth and water composition from a lateral perspective. The fuselage adopts a reinforced engineering plastic shell, which has both corrosion resistance and wear resistance, and is suitable for harsh working conditions such as humidity and mud. By optimizing the battery management system, the equipment can significantly extend the battery life while collecting and transmitting data at a high frequency to ensure uninterrupted monitoring.

The two water level meters complement each other with their "hard-core" performance: the buried device focuses on long-term and stable monitoring of deep water levels, while the side-mounted water accumulation meter provides flexible perception of multiple angles and parameters, together building a solid data defense line for flash flood disaster warning. With ultra-long battery life, accurate monitoring and ruggedness, they help relevant departments to grasp the dynamics of water conditions in a timely manner and formulate scientific flood prevention strategies, becoming a key scientific and technological force to protect the lives and property of people in mountainous areas.
