Stream Flowmeters
If you are still measuring stream flow with an orange (and multiplying by 0.6) a GEOPACKS FlowMeter could be just the piece of equipment for you. Ideal for school and college field trips, student projects, practical river irrigation studies and water resource management. Your GEOPACKS FlowMeter comes with a 30-page book containing technical specifications, instructions for use, care and maintenance, conversion and calibration charts and useful guidance on carrying out interesting field work projects.
How does a GEOPACKS FlowMeter operate? Revolutions of an impeller are sensed electronically and transmitted to a hand-held counter unit. The number of revolutions per unit of time can be translated into stream flow velocity using a conversion chart. Our impeller sticks have been accurately calibrated in a flume tank.

GEOPACKS FlowMeters are supplied with a full 12-month guarantee and if products do not immediately meet with your expectations, your purchases will be refunded.
Geopacks FlowMeters in action
Take a look at our FlowMeter in action in the Extreme Arctic. The British Schools Exploring Society Expedition led a team of 15 young people and 7 leaders to explore the archipelago of Svalbard to study the onset of the formation of rivers during the melting season, and the phenomenon that are "slush surges". The research unit spent 22 days in Tobredalen valley studying environmental changes, click here to see the team using Geopacks FlowMeter.
