FAQ#018 – What kind of overvoltage protection is built in the vibrating wire piezometers?
A plasma surge arrestor is wired in parallel with the coil (which is used to pluck the wire). The nominal impulse discharge current 8-20 microsec interval is 10 KA. Impulse spark-over voltage at 1Kv/ microsec: 700 V.
FAQ#016 – Are the vibrating wire piezometers equipped with temperature sensors, or is the temperature sensor an option?
Yes, each vibrating wire piezometer, as every Sisgeo vibrating wire instrument, is equipped with a built-in NTC thermistor YSI 44005 type (3000 Ohm at 25°C). Thermistor is not a option for vibrating wire instruments and therefore there is not additional cost for it.
Vibrating Wire multipoint piezometers
Vibrating Wire multipoint piezometers Reference products codes: PK20MMultipoint vibrating wire piezometers, also called multilevel piezometers, provide measurements of pore-water pressure at different elevations in the same borehole. Isolation of the pore-water pressure at each elevation is achieved by the fully-grouted installation method. APPLICATIONS • Measurement of ground water pressure at different elevations• Monitoring soil consolidation […]
