Telemetry Communication

Telemetered data (two-way) is sent through either HTTP(S) or FTP, via an integrated modem using IoT LTE-M (CAT M1) communication, keeping Operators better informed before & after field trips.

Operators can also utilize a bundled solution with OTT HydroMet data hosting solutions, which provides access to web-based data visualization and alarm management.

Telemetered data can be automatically transmitted to multiple locations (up to four Servers) for maximum redundancy.

The logger’s long-lasting battery dramatically reduces expensive & unscheduled trips to measurement sites.

CBS

The OTT Compact Bubbler System (CBS) is a lightweight water level bubble gauge, design to measure water levels accurately for up to 30m.

Different to common water level meters, a Compact Bubbler System operates on a highly accurate drift-free air bubble principle.  This technology utilizes a small piston pump to compress air through a measuring tube and bubble chamber into a water column.  By comparing barometric pressure to the bubble pressure, the Compact Bubbler System calculates water level height.

Due to the indirect measurement principle, and with no electronic parts in the water, Compact Bubbler Systems are particularly suitable for monitoring areas prone to lightning strikes.

OTT CBS

 

 

CBS Models

Three Compact Bubbler System models are available:

• OTT Compact Bubbler System (15m / ± 5mm accuracy)
• OTT Compact Bubbler System (30m / ± 5mm accuracy)
