The Water Level Sounder uses a full depth-rated stainless steel and teflon probe that is 5/8-inch (16 mm) in diameter. The water level sounder's sensor electronics are encapsulated in a water and dust proof housing. The water level sounder's electronics module can be removed so that the entire reel and tape can be cleaned and decontaminated.
The well level sounder consists of a strong polyethylene jacketed measuring tape that will accurately read to 0.01 foot or 1 mm. The tape reels are built of resistant polycarbonate . Our clients almost universally prefer aluminum reels for the improved durability, ease of cranking, and better ergonomics. Most plastic reels have much smaller hubs and that makes cranking much tougher. All load bearing components on the well level sounders are made of mild steel.
