Standpipe Piezometer
The Standpipe Piezometer SGP-3400 Series is a straightforward solution for monitoring groundwater pressures in soil and rock formations.
Like other piezometers, it uses the Casagrande method, constructed with a low air entry element connected to standpipe tubing. The tubing is lowered into a pre-drilled borehole to manually measure groundwater levels using a dip meter. In cases of artesian pressure, a Bourdon pressure gauge can be attached to the top for accurate readings. Without the need for complex reporting equipment, data can be easily retrieved and quickly interpreted. The SGP-3400 Series is constructed with high-quality materials such as HDPE and PVC, ensuring lasting and reliable performance in Australia’s harshest environments. Other features of this Casagrande type piezometer include:
- Tip pore size of 60µ
- 3 x 10-4 m/s tip permeability
- Available in 1m and 3m lengths
- Porous plastic or ceramic element
Monitel deploys and manages Casagrande type piezometers on sites across Western Australia. They are ideal for projects and locations that are not suited to more remote, automated systems. The series can be installed in settings such as:
-
Boreholes
-
Reservoirs
-
Water Wells
-
Rivers
