13 applications shown
Continuously record groundwater levels at above-ground gauge tubes.
Stainless-steel monitoring wells in a visible build-up. Aquatos mini or Web LTX in 2″ tubes, with sensor cable and suspension. Compliant with DVGW W 110 / W 111.
Equip monitoring sites compactly in below-ground chambers.
Level measurement in below-ground chambers. Logger, chamber cover, casing and desiccant are part of our delivery. Civil works (excavation, setting the chambers) are handled by the contractor; we replace existing chambers on request. Refers to DVGW W 121 (construction and development).
Detect rising water levels and tailor alerts to your operation.
Water level and rainfall in real time, discharge at solar stations where continuous measurement is possible. Measure autonomously, transmit redundantly, alert by SMS and e-mail. Standard for the EU Floods Directive and municipal heavy-rain provision.
Collect weather data at the site with autonomous stations.
Self-sufficient climate stations with solar/battery: rainfall, wind, radiation, humidity, soil temperature. Optional satellite transmission for remote sites.
Connect wells, water meters and sensors in the supply network.
Well monitoring with delivery head, reservoirs, pressure and flow in the distribution network, turbidity and free chlorine at the works or reservoir outlet per the German Drinking Water Ordinance (TrinkwV § 14a). Pulse-counter adapter for any common water meter, MID integration via SDI-12/Modbus.
Study temperature profiles across multiple depths.
Up to 30 thermistor nodes on one chain, vertical stratification analysis at ±0.1 °C in lakes, reservoirs and permafrost boreholes.
Keep track of reservoir levels, seepage and temperature profiles.
Recurring mandatory measurements per DIN 19700-10/-11/-12: reservoir level, seepage level at the drainage gallery and seepage volume (pulse counter), depth-profile temperatures via measuring chains for stratification assessment, rainfall and soil moisture in the catchment. Data quality-checked and exportable as ZRXP / OGC-SOS.
Aquatos RadarIllustrative installation exampleMeasure water levels without contact at bridges, weirs and chambers with Aquatos Radar.
Non-contact water-level measurement on bridges, weirs and chambers. No sensor-cable drift and no fouling at the sensor — but susceptible to ice, foam or driftwood on the water surface. Typical accuracy 2–3 mm under ideal conditions, SDI-12 integration with Aquatos.
Bring logger, solar supply and sensor connections together in one station.
Complete build-ups for remote sites without mains power, with solar/battery supply, Aquatos logger and pre-wired sensor outputs.
Monitor levels and currents in harbours and estuaries.
Auxiliary gauges and flow measurement at harbours, tidal flats and estuaries, robust against salt water, waves and ice. ADCP and MID integration via SDI-12/Modbus for cross-section discharge measurements. Multi-year service life in IP68.
Record water quality as time series and identify changes.
Oxygen, turbidity, pH, conductivity, nitrate — multi-parameter sondes in gauge chambers or on solar/mains-powered stations. Early warning of algal blooms via chlorophyll-a and phycocyanin fluorescence (for cyanobacteria), complemented by O₂ day-night variation and turbidity, on continuously powered set-ups.
Study snow, ice and temperature profiles in alpine terrain.
Snow depth (ultrasonic/laser) and snow water equivalent (SWE) as lead indicators for headwater runoff forecasting, ice cover from the temperature profiles of the measuring chain. Loggers down to −25 °C, with radiation shield and frost-protection concept to DWD standard.
Combine soil moisture and weather data for irrigation planning.
Soil-moisture profiles in the main root zone (10/30/60 cm), air temperature above the canopy and reference evapotranspiration per FAO-56 as input for irrigation and forecasting systems. Plus drainage levels in inspection shafts and frost warning for specialty crops.
Different tasks, a shared foundation: reliable measurements. Find the right starting point for your sector and explore the technical requirements when you need them.
A three-minute overview of where TerraTransfer systems are deployed worldwide.
The EU Floods Directive (2007/60/EC), national water law and municipal heavy-rain concepts all require continuous gauge data. TerraTransfer delivers stations, data and alerting from a single source. Our Aquatos loggers transmit over LTE-M with NB-IoT fallback — critical when a network is congested during a flood. Optional redundant antenna paths.
