The OSS-PC1 miniature current meter is a field-proven instrument for measuring the velocity of water in shallow open and closed channels. It is used for point measurements of flow velocities on the water surface or in vertical profiles down to the riverbed at flow speeds of 0.025 m/s to 6 m/s.
The OSS-PC1 body is made from corrosion-resistant nickel silver with anodised aluminium fans. It is suitable for use in the most and has been designed for lifetime trouble-free operation under normal use and when properly maintained.
HyQuest Solutions’ current meters are modular systems: You can tailor the perfect solution for your application with a choice of several fans, rods, accessories, etc.

Alternative Model for Deeper Waters
The HyQuest Solutions universal current meter OSS-B1 is used for point measurements of flow velocities on the water surface or in vertical profiles down to the riverbed at flow speeds of 0.025 m/s to 10 m/s. Deployment: mounted on wading rod, from a bridge/boat using winches and outriggers, or on cableways.
Corrosion-resistancy:
Body: nickel silver
Fans: anodised aluminium
Precise and reliable measurements:
Encapsulated magnetic reed switch ensuring reliability and a ‘clean’ contact signal
Direct results: Direct display of velocity or number of revolutions with HyQuest Solutions’ counters or the paperless stream gauging tablet
Easy deployment on standard wading rods (supplied with standard kit) and top set wading rods
