SonTek RS5 – RENTAL
Want to know what the discharge data 
collection buzz is about - you’re at the 
right place! The SonTek-RS5 is the 
world’s most compact and robust 
ADCP for collecting river, stream, and 
canal discharge data. The RS5 is small 
yet powerful. When paired with the 
custom-designed Torrent Board Micro SKU : E-528-RS5-rQPOD System
and SonTek-RTK, you will be ready to Manufacturer: SonTek
quickly collect the highest quality

• Vertical Acoustic Beam: Superior channel definition for the most accurate cross-sectional 
area for discharge applications. Measures the depth directly under the system and 
extends maximum discharge depth if bottom-tracking is out of range. 360º compass and 
two-axis tilt sensor
• 360º compass and two-axis tilt sensor: Reports vessel heading and magnetic error and 
compensates for motion due to surface conditions. The tilt sensor uses pitch and roll to 
correct depth and velocities.
• RTK GPS (Option): Ultra-precise positioning as an alternative to bottom tracking in 
moving beds or other difficult situations. Geolocate each sample (or ensemble) during 
measurement. Corrections are sent from the SonTek RTK base station or a local NTRIP.
• DGNSS (Option): Integrated DGNSS smart antenna for a position as a backup or 
alternative to bottom tracking in moving bed or other challenging conditions.
