Fully Grouted Multi-Point Piezometer String EL380012

Multipoint piezometer strings allow multiple vibrating wire piezometers to be connected on a single wire. This facilitates the installation of several fully grouted piezometers. Unique cable avoids vertical empty channels. Kevlar® (Kevlar® is a registered trademark of EI duPont de Nemours and Company or its affiliates) coated with tough polyurethane, a reinforced cable is used that does not stretch to withstand the rigors of installation and is completely water-locked to minimize any leak. No conductors are shared to maximize the independent reliability of each sensor.

Perfect when more than one reading is needed at various depths, in the same location.
