This high-performance ultrasonic water depth gauge features an automatic range-tracking measurement function, delivering real-time, precise, and stable water depth data. Its multi-parameter display capability allows users to view water depth, temperature, altitude, speed, time, date, sound velocity, and battery level all on the same screen. Powered by a built-in 7.4V 2500mAh lithium battery, the depth measuring device offers over 12 hours of continuous operation, making it ideal for long-duration outdoor measurement tasks.
Clear Display and Intelligent Measurement
- Our portable depth sounder features a high-resolution color TFT LCD screen with a 6-digit depth display, ensuring clear and easy-to-read data under various lighting conditions.
- The depth sounder supports automatic range tracking, enabling real-time, accurate, and stable measurements for reliable field operations.
- The display of the water depth measurement tool is capable of showing key parameters such as water depth, water temperature, altitude, moving speed, date, time, sound velocity, and battery status simultaneously.
- In addition, parameters like echo threshold, transmission power, amplification gain, and detection average can be conveniently adjusted via the menu system, providing flexible control for different measurement requirements.
Compact Design and Versatile Functionality
- This portable water depth gauge features a compact and lightweight design, making it extremely easy to carry and operate in the field.
- Built with a 16MB internal memory, the handheld depth sounder can store up to 10,000 sets of historical data, which can be exported via software or reviewed directly on the display, ensuring efficient data management.
- The depth measurement device supports automatic temperature display and compensation, with a temperature range of -20°C to 70°C, guaranteeing accurate measurements under diverse environmental conditions.
- Its measurement blind zone is less than 0.5 m, effectively minimizing errors caused by near-surface interference.
- The working frequency can be set between 50~2000 kHz, allowing adaptation to different water conditions and depth measurement scenarios.
Applications
In hydropower systems, the depth sounder precisely measures the water level and depth of reservoirs and dams to ensure safe operation. It rapidly maps seabed or lakebed topography for resource development and engineering planning. Determining exact depths enables accurate positioning of water sampling points at different layers. In river surveys, a depth sounder provides real-time depth profiles for analyzing channel changes and supporting flood control, navigation, and ecological protection.

Q1: What is the measuring range of the SISCO portable ultrasonic depth sounder?
A1: The SISCO portable ultrasonic depth sounder offers two selectable measuring ranges — 100 meters and 150 meters — to meet different water depth measurement needs. Its high-precision ultrasonic sensor ensures reliable readings for hydropower, river surveys, and hydrological monitoring applications.
Q2: Can the depth sounder store and export historical measurement data?
A2: Yes. The device features a built-in 16MB memory capable of storing up to 10,000 historical records. Users can easily browse previous data on the display or export it via software for data analysis and reporting. This makes the handheld depth sounder highly convenient for long-term monitoring and field studies.
Q3: How long can the ultrasonic depth sounder operate on a full charge?
A3: Powered by a 7.4V 2500mAh lithium battery, the depth sounder can operate continuously for more than 12 hours. Its low-power design ensures reliable performance for extended outdoor use without frequent recharging.
Tips: How can you ensure the most accurate depth measurements?
For optimal accuracy, make sure the transducer is fully submerged and free from bubbles or debris before measurement. Regularly calibrate the sound velocity based on water temperature and salinity, and enable the automatic range-tracking mode to maintain stable and precise readings even in varying water conditions.
