Vented Data Logger
Efficient Groundwater Monitoring with Direct-Read Data Access
The Vented Data Logger is a reliable and labour-efficient solution for continuous groundwater level monitoring and data logging. Suspended in a well using a direct-read cable, the logger maintains a connection to the surface, allowing users to access the instrument directly at the wellhead without removing it from the well.
