RiverPro 1200 kHz

The 1200 kHz RiverPro has been purpose-built to fill two specific needs:

  • To provide an ADCP designed specifically for shallow river applications (20 cm to 25 m range)
  • To provide an upgrade path for our current industry gold-standard Rio Grande ADCP users

Like our next-generation RiverRay ADCP (see below), the RiverPro offers users a 5-beam solution, auto-adaptive sampling, user-friendly interface, and Teledyne RDI’s unsurpassed quality, service, and support. The RiverPro has also been designed to fit into our RiverRay float, allowing users to swap out their ADCPs based upon their environment, eliminating the need to purchase and transport a second float.
