Depth gauge deepTESTER - water depth measurement
The electronic gauge is an advanced mobile depth measurement device from Novabo. It is used to test the depth of water in a reservoir, for example at boreholes and piezometers. A piezometer is a small diameter borehole that is drilled to check the depth of the free water surface in aquifers. A piezometer provides information on water level movements in a reservoir, both falling and rising water surface.
The depth gauge is battery-operated and the housing is made of powder-coated metal. Changing the battery is very easy thanks to a drawer, but will probably not be done often. According to the manufacturer's specifications, the device works on a single battery for up to many years. In addition to this, the gauge has an AUTO-OFF emergency shut-off function in case of inactivity, which protects against unplanned battery discharge.
The reel contains an electronic circuit that controls the operation of the unit. Manual management is possible via the control panel, which is located on the front. A meter tape is rolled up on the reel and a probe is placed at the end of the reel. Uncontrolled unwinding of the drum is limited by a brake - BRAKE.
The unit has a specially programmed UP-DOWN system that generates an audible alarm when the probe is submerged or emerges from the water. The depth tester can be set to report when the probe touches the water or when contact is lost. The probe is made of stainless steel and has IP68 protection. This ensures that the sensitive measuring system is duly isolated from the environment and that its indications are precise. The small diameter of the probe (14 mm) makes it possible to use the gauge, even when the measuring hole is very narrow.
