Radar Wave Gauge

Radar Wave Gauge

Radar Wave Gauge

Radar Wave Gauge delivers accurate, real-time wave measurements anytime, anywhere. Powered by a high-precision radar sensor with millimeter-level accuracy, it directly measures water surface elevation, eliminating the drawbacks of pressure-based systems. With an impressive 40-meter range and no submerged components, it avoids complex underwater installations and reduces maintenance needs.

Designed for maximum flexibility, it can be easily installed on fixed structures like platforms, piers, poles, jetties, or bridge decks. Its versatile and low-impact design makes it the ideal solution for wave monitoring in coastal, offshore, and inland environments alike.
