Flow Metering for Hydrology
Our products have been used for over 50 years in the field of flow measurement in surface waters. Our many years of experience enable us to recognise hydraulic requirements and challenges at measurement places and to set up the measuring points accordingly. Due to our range of different measurement technologies in combination with sensors in various designs and numerous mounting solutions, we offer you the best possible measurement system for every measurement place.
Benefits
- Many years of experience in the field of surface water, open channels and measuring in rivers
- Optimal solutions for each measurement place thanks to various measurement technologies and a wide range of sensors
- Permanent and mobile measurement systems
- Consistent data transmission concept
- Self-sufficient operation through measurement systems with solar or fuel cell supply
Mobile Measurement System for Discharge Measurement in Flowing Waters
NivuFlow Stick allows for quick and reliable flow metering in rivers, streams and channels.
The flow velocity is measured by the ultrasonic cross-correlation measurement principle. Thanks to this technology, the sensor
records velocities at different water depths with high resolution. This minimises the effort to only one measurement per
measurement vertical and still enables a highly accurate determination of the flow velocity curve.
The integrated water level
measurement simultaneously records the profile and calculates and displays the flow value directly at the measurement point.
The total flow rate is output directly after measuring the last section.

Benefits
Self-sufficient measurement with solar and data transmission
The NIVUS solar solutions enable permanent measuring operation at measurement places where there is no power supply available.
Our system consists of a reliable solar panel, the measurement system and buffer batteries in a ready-made system. On request, our experienced service team will carry out the installation and commissioning. Due to the adjustable cycle operation, our NivuFlow measurement systems are perfectly suited for energy-autonomous operation. In conjunction with NIVUS Connectivity, the measurement data is transmitted securely and reliably via 4G mobile communication.
Benefits
- Self-sufficient measurement place operation independent of the mains supply
- Automatic measurement data transmission
- Ready-made solution
- Maintenance work is reduced to a minimum
Consistent Communication Concept
NIVUS Connectivity is an end-to-end and consistently secure communication solution. It already includes the necessary infrastructure and the relevant components for reliable transmission of your measurement data via mobile networks.
Continuous Measuring with Ultrasonic Transit Time Method
NivuFlow 650 offers highly accurate continuous flow measurement with the ultrasonic transit time method in several levels in rivers and channels. The system is also suitable for measurement places without power supply.
Benefits

Water Level Measurements
In order to reliably measure the water level, we have the option of using various measurement technologies. In addition to contactless measurement methods with ultrasound or radar, we also offer hydrostatic probes. Existing water level measurements can also be easily integrated. Thus, we can offer the right measurement system for every measurement situation.
