Made in Japan
Manufacturer: Kyowa Electronic Instruments Co., Ltd.
Model: BWL-20MET
Suitable for measure changing underground water levels in landslide areas.
The BWL-ET series is strain gage type water level transducers designed to measure changing underground water levels in landslide areas, etc. They do not require any compensation against fluctuations in atmospheric pressure, and thus ensure accurate measurement. A temperature measuring function lets them perform simultaneous measurement of water level and temperature.
Features
●Stainless steel enclosure ensures excellent corrosion resistance, while a built-in lightning arrester assures safe operation without receiving any effect of thunderbolts.
●Simultaneous measurement of water level and water temperature
●Easy installation, maintenance and inspection
●Applicable for measurement of underground water levels in landslide areas and water levels of dams, rivers, intake wells and tanks
