HyQuant Edge V is KISTERS’ advanced single-device radar water surface velocity monitoring station powered by KIPTEC (KISTERS Intelligent Platform for Embedded Connectivity). Minimal infrastructure and fast installation make the autonomous sensor ideal for both permanent deployments and time-limited monitoring campaigns – without compromising accuracy. TLS secured data with minimal infrastructure, zero calibration, and low maintenance. Flexible measurement ranges up to 50 m / 164 ft (L20 and L50) cover diverse applications.

Using 60 GHz V band FMCW radar, the low-power device delivers long term stability. Configuration via KISTERS’ HyComm software is fast and intuitive, requiring no radar expertise. Designed for harsh outdoor environments, non-contact measurement combined with a rugged IP68 housing withstands temporary submersion and reduces site visits.

  • Fast deployment: All-in-one (sensor, logger, modem, telemetry), HyQuant Edge V requires only power and a SIM to start operating. Its compact form and low weight enable quick mounting on bridges or space-constrained locations. Open interfaces support any cloud-based system, and optional pre-configured links to KISTERS datasphere enable immediate cloud data transmission.
  • Remote management: Remote configuration and OTA firmware updates reduce site visits. Continuous health monitoring helps detect power or connectivity issues early, minimizing downtime.
  • Future-Proof: software upgrades to HyQuant Edge L+V (level + velocity) or Q (discharge) add functionality without hardware changes.
  • High precision long-term stable radar performance: The integrated 60 GHz FMCW radar-on-chip ensures superior accuracy and resolution, unaffected by temperature or ageing, ensuring drift-free long-term stability.
  • Get data when it matters: Adaptive algorithms dynamically adjust transmission intervals to site conditions, delivering relevant data while minimizing power use. Event-driven logging captures critical changes, with all data securely stored and automatically transmitted once connectivity returns. Optional Solar Power Pack enables fully autonomous, off-grid operation.
  • Secure, end-to-end connectivity: LTE Cat M1 / NB IoT enables reliable wireless transmission even from remote sites. TLS 1.3 with unique device and server certificates ensures secure, authenticated, data exchange. Secure boot guarantees only trusted firmware runs. Standard protocols (MQTTS, HTTPS, SFTP) and data formats for file-based data transfer support easy integration with any data platform – no vendor lock-in.
