Level Measurement in Water Wells

Level Measurement in Water Wells

KELLER Level Sensors are used to measure static and dynamic levels of water in wells
in a reliable and precise manner.














Why Measure Well Water?

Level measurement is of paramount importance as it provides information on the behaviour 
of the well and pumping equipment.
A suitable measurement and data analysis enables proactive identification of when the
well requires preventive maintenance work due to increased deterioration of the grooved 
well casing. The greater the incrustation, the less water can enter the well, 
causing water levels to fall. This results in lower electromechanical pumping efficiency,
which in turn leads to higher electricity costs when pumping water from the well. 

Level measurement in conjunction with the flow rate measurement also gives information on 
the status of the pumping equipment and the efficiency with which it is working.
It is imperative to diagnose wear and tear on the pumping equipment before it fails completely. This will help avoiding major repair expenses.

Cavitation

It is very common that cavitation pumping equipment is not equipped for submergence 
and therefore lacks real time information. With a digital or analog level sensor you 
can program a frequency converter via a PLC to protect the pumping equipment from 
level changes.

Sensor Protection

It is important to install a poliduct or hose into which a sensor can be inserted to ensure 
correct operation and cable life longevity. Also include a desiccant dryer tube into the lifts, 
which measure relative pressure, to avoid moisture entering the sensors interior.

Measurement with datalogger i and GSM i

KELLER offers a wide range of level sensors with dataloggers included. 
This allows storage of all historical information held on the sensor and can also,
over time, analyse the behaviour of the well, which assists in diagnosing any
underlying issues.

Using the GSM-2, information and alerts can be relayed directly to the 
manager and/or operator to prevent errors in real time.
The GSM-2 permits you to send data to a cell phone via SMS, e-mail or website when the information is required.
