Surface Flood Pole

The Surface Flood Pole is a robust GRP pole containing either a BDT Level Sensor or Radar Level Sensor as an above ground, low powered and wireless water level sensor.  

The Surface Flood Pole is designed for continuous and reliable real-time monitoring for flood prone and high risk sites for industrial sites, SuDS and NFM schemes and more. 

Overview

The Surface Flood Pole is a real-time GRP flood monitoring system designed for surface water level monitoring. UK manufactured and engineered for external use in external environments above ground.  The BDT Level Sensor is ATEX and UKEx Zone 2 certified suitable for all hazardous environments, making it a reliable flood monitoring solution you can rely on for continuous monitoring. 

Easy Installation & Minimal Civils Costs

The Surface Flood Pole is a real-time GRP flood monitoring system designed for surface water level monitoring. UK manufactured and engineered for external use in external environments above ground.  The BDT Level Sensor is ATEX and UKEx Zone 2 certified suitable for all hazardous environments, making it a reliable flood monitoring solution you can rely on for continuous monitoring. The Radar Level Sensor is a higher precision level sensor for continuous, real-time level monitoring whereas the BDT Level Sensor is tailored for HIGH and LOW level flood alerts. 

Dual BDT Level Sensor

The Dual BDT Level Sensor is the upgraded version of the standard BDT Level Sensor for HIGH and LOW flood level alert detection. Simply curl the cable up to the desired height in the GRP stilling tube and it’s ready to use.  

Data Communications

The Cellular Gateways & BMS/SCADA Gateways are designed to allow clients to expand their portfolio of sensors, thanks to our plug in relay cards. Our gateways can either be four-way or eight-way as standard, meaning one gateway can hold up to four BDT Level Sensors or eight BDT Level Sensors or similar at one time.

Integrate other triggers and 3rd party equipment with our BDT Level Sensor gateway or monitor via our Sentinel365 cloud dashboard via a website browser from your smartphone or desktop 24/7. The BDT Level Sensor sends health check messages every 2.5 seconds. Each gateway show visual LED status messages for HEALTHFAULT and IN ALARM.

Applications

The Surface Flood Pole is suitable for the following applications: 

  • River, lagoon & pond monitoring
  • Car park flood monitoring 
  • Caravan park flood monitoring
  • Part of SuDS and NFM scheme for flood prevention
  • Housing estate & outdoor space flood monitoring
