Challenge: Monitor water depth in roadside drainage ditches to warn of imminent
"wash-overs".
Details: A municipality that experiences frequent roadway "wash-overs" during periods of heavy rain requires a submersible transmitter to monitor depth of water in roadside drainage ditches. The transmitters must interface with telemetry that relays data to a monitoring station.
Solution: KPSI's Series 730 with optional piezometer nose cap allows for burial in the roadside ditch (with sand and gravel fill above transmitter). Reliable signal conditioning circuitry provides a 4-20 mA signal proportional to the water level above the transmitter. The piezometer nose cap prevents solids from clogging the pressure port of the transducer. The all-welded 316 SS housing completes the package.
