Case Study
Carbon Canal: Water Level
|
The USBR has a water level system on a ten ft. Parshall flume. The flume resides on the Carbon Canal between Helper and Price, UT.
The system consists of a potentiometer based float/pulley assembly that measures stage, our CR510 datalogger, and a cellular phone link
using a Campbell Scientific COM310 voice synthesis phone modem. Water users can call the site and hear a voice telling them the water
level and discharge. A marine deep cycle battery that is charged by a 20 Watt solar panel powers the system.
