Casagrande Standpipe Piezometer
<p>RST’s Casagrande Standpipe Piezometer tip consists of a slotted PVC body that encloses and protects a porous plastic filter element. A PVC Riser Pipe (available from RST) is connected to the tip and extended to the surface. A CPVC body is available for ...
Multi-Point VW Piezometer
<p>Allows multiple VW piezometers to be simply and reliably installed in a single borehole. It can be connected to a tough urethane jacketed Kevlar® reinforced single cable which prevents vertical void channels. Used primarily where multi-zone monitoring is ...
Piezo-Resistive piezometers
<p>Piezo-resistive piezometers, also called semiconductor piezometers or strain gauge piezometers, are very accurate pressure transducers suitable for high frequency readings and short term applications.<br>Their robust 4-20mA output signals are easy to read ...
Pneumatic Piezometer
<p>Pneumatic piezometers are used to measure pore water pressure in saturated soils. Applications include: Monitoring pore pressures to determine safe rates of fill or excavation. Monitoring pore water pressures to determine slope stability. Monitoring the ...
Standpipe Piezometer
<p>The standpipe piezometer is the most basic of piezometer types. It consists of a filter tip joined to a riser pipe. Water flow from the surrounding soil into the standpipe. Readings are obtained with a water level indicator</p>
Vented VW Pressure Transducer
<p>The vented pressure transducer is designed specifically for monitoring changes in water levels in wells and stilling basins. The VW pressure transducer converts water pressure to a frequency signal via a patented* arrangement of diaphragm, a tensioned steel ...
Vibrating Wire Piezometers
<p>The VW piezometer converts water pressure to a frequency signal via a diaphragm, a tensioned steel wire, and an electromagnetic coil. The piezometer is designed so that a change in pressure on the diaphragm causes a change in tension of the wire. When excited ...
Vibrating Wire piezometers
<p>Vibrating wire piezometers are used to monitor pore-water pressure in soils. They are typically sealed in boreholes but can also be embedded in fills, or suspended in a well.<br>Typical applications include evaluating slope stability, dewatering and drainage ...
