Elan Products ELAN QuickCal
Accurate level is vital to open channel and area velocity flow meters; a small error can dramatically impact flow results. With custody transfer, industrial monitoring or related billing issues, these errors cost money. Periodic level checks are critical. Yet level checks are difficult at best. Level can change rapidly and splash, visibility is often poor, and if a confined space entry is required it just makes things harder. For even conscientious personnel, a “good enough” level reading is typical. This is precisely why the ELAN QuickCal is such an ideal tool for anyone performing open-channel flow monitoring. The QuickCal consists of a 26” tapered aluminum ruler with 0.01’ and 0.1” markings alongside an inset indicator strip. The ruler comes with an 8’ to 16’ extension pole. Simply lower the ruler into the flow and remove; no confined space entry required. The gray strip turns black when wet (it won’t wick), giving an easy-to-read line for water level. The level increments correlate directly to primary device tables and flow meters without a decimal conversion. Whether you are Flow Service provider with many meters in a collection system, a wastewater plant meeting CMOM, NPDES Permit requirements or monitoring industry, or a water plant verifying channel levels, there is no easier, more precise or more accurate method for checking level than the ELAN QuickCal.
