Products / Differential-pressure hydrostatic level gauge
The CA-JL-KS differential-pressure hydrostatic level gauge system is a high-precision measuring instrument used to measure changes in relative height difference. It is suitable for long-term vertical displacement monitoring between multiple points in geotechnical and structural safety engineering. The equipment uses a high-precision pressure sensor to measure the relative liquid level height. From the change in liquid level between the datum point and the observation points, the settlement is calculated. It is mainly used for vertical displacement monitoring of bridges, tunnels, metro works, dams, excavations and large storage tanks.

The differential-pressure hydrostatic level gauge system consists of a liquid storage tank, differential-pressure hydrostatic level gauges, communicating pipes and other components. The system is composed of several differential-pressure hydrostatic level gauges; the storage tank and the gauges are connected by an air pipe and a liquid pipe. The datum point is placed at a relatively stable base point. When a measuring point rises or falls relative to the datum point, the liquid level at each point changes. From the liquid level change between the datum point and the measuring points, the rise and fall of each measuring point relative to the horizontal base point is calculated.
