Ideal for measuring the depth of water in standpipes, wells and boreholes. The Water Level Meter or Dipmeter comprises a Stainless Steel sensor probe fitted to a flexible graduated cable, wound on a hand reel containing a transistorised switched circuit, audio indicator and battery.

The sensor probe incorporates an insulating gap which acts as a switch, the circuit being completed upon making contact with the water. Inside the hand reel is a sensitivity control which is adjusted to suit the water conductivity.

The cable comprises a non-stretch flat tape with stranded steel conductors, graduated at 1mm intervals. A 12mm slim line version of the water level meter is also available. Typically water level indicators are used in the measurement of water levels in wells, standpipes, boreholes.
