Data logger with probes for groundwater monitoring and water level measurement
Level Data Loggers are the ideal measurement devices for reliable measuring of water level and temperature, conductivity or pH-value or further parameters in groundwater, at springs or lakes.
- Measuring up to four different parameters
- Compact, waterthight housing, flood-proof and suitable for long-term use in the field
- Compensation of barometric fluctuations and temperature fluctuations as a standard
- Data retrieval locally or by means of data transmission (only PD-5)
- Convenient back-check measuring by use of electric contact gauge without the need to dismantle the equipment
- Energy supply for up to 10 years of operating time or 2,000,000 measurements
- Universal range of application: level pipes, wells, open water or measurement at weir
- Variable cabel lenghts are possible
- System at a good value for money level
PD-3 (max. 2 parameters) - Measuring reliably water level and temperature.
The PD-3 is a very dependable instrument to measure water level and temperature for example at groundwater observation sites. At an excellent value for money ratio this level data logger works perfectly even at rough outside conditions such as high/low temperature or humidity. The pressure probe and the logger create a compact, fixed unit.
PD-4 (max. 4 parameters) - Four parameters in a compact system
The PD-4 provides you a high level of flexibility. It is possible to measure up to four different parameters at the same time by attaching two probes. Varied use, large data memory and up to ten years of operation time are amongst the many advantages of this equipement.
PD-5 (max. 4 parameters and data transmission) - High end logger with data transmission
Hydrology at its highest level: With the opportunity to measure up to four parameters at the same time and built-in data transmission the PD-5 stands above all for its customer value. Using GSM or GPRS technology it delivers the collected data via internet directly to the PC or a webserver of the water management system.
