OTT MF pro - Water Flow Meter

Handheld electromagnetic water flow meter with automatic discharge calculation

The OTT MF Pro is a user-friendly, low maintenance electromagnetic current meter for cost-efficient in-stream discharge measurement.

The OTT MF pro saves time in the field by automatically calculating discharge and its electromagnetic sensor head is maintenance-free, ideal for use in low-flow environments, and unaffected by large amounts of organic matter.

  • Spot
  • Electro-magnetic
  • Flow velocity and water depth
  • Low maintenance magnetic - inductive probe with level measurement for reliable flow measurements. Works well in low flow and turbulent conditions, cross - sections with weed growth and pollution. Applicable in streams and conduits.
  • 0 … 6 m/s
  • ± 2% of measured value ± 0.015 m/s ( 0 … 3 m/s ) and ± 4% of measured value ± 0.015 m/s ( 3 … 5 m/s )

  • Discharge automatically calculated: the OTT MF pro computes discharge automatically based on USGS and ISO methods, saving time and eliminating potential for error caused by written transcription 
  • Real-time velocity: velocity is graphed in real-time on the meter's color display, allowing trends to be visualized quickly
  • Maintenance-free: the electromagnetic sensor head has no moving parts and is virtually maintenance-free
  • Versatile applications: the sensor's magnetic inductive measurement principle makes the OTT MF pro ideal for use in low-flow conditions and environments heavy in organic matter, unlike mechanical or acoustic meters
  • User-friendly handheld: a lightweight, water-resistant handheld features a full color display that is easily readable even in bright sunlight
    Depth sensor: optionally included in the unit
