  • Diver Suite Cost-effective and compact Monitoring changes to groundwater levels and water quality

    APPLICATIONS Long-term water level monitoring Groundwater monitoring network automation Data logging for pumping and slug testsMonitoring of watershed, drainage basin, and recharge areas Stream gauging, lake levels and reservoirs Harbor and tidal fluctuation monitoringWetlands and stormwater run-off monitoringMonitoring landfill sitesMonitoring saltwater intrusionMonitoring water level and salinity for aquifer storage and recovery projects

    Mini-DiverThe Mini-Diver features a compactdesign and impressive internalmemory and can fit into virtually anygroundwater monitoring well.

    Use the Mini-Diver to: Monitor large groundwater

    monitoring projects where cost isan important factor

    Conveniently and automaticallycollect groundwater level andtemperature data.

    Specifications 22 mm diameter, 90 mm length Stainless Steel housing Memory capacity: 24000 measurements

    Micro-DiverThe Micro-Diver provides reliable,automatic measurement andrecording of groundwater level andtemperature data. With its compactsize (only 18mm diameter), the Micro-Diver fits in almost any well.

    The Diver is suspended by astainless steel cable which ispermanently mounted inside thewell casing. The Diver is raised toground surface for easy connectionto the USB Reading Unit which isconnected through USB to yourArcher (Pocket PC) or laptop. Thoughcost effective, this method requiresdirect access to the Diver, and thusrequires more manual effort andtime in the field.

    MANUAL SEMI AUTOMATIC AUTOMATIC WIRELESS - Diver-NETZ*Data is transferred from the Diverthrough the DDC cable. At groundsurface, the Diver-Mate is connectedto the DDC cable to retrieve theDiver data. The Diver-Mate allowsstorage of data from hundreds ofDivers. The Diver-Mate is connectedthrough USB to your Archer (PocketPC) or laptop. This methodeliminates the need to raise theDiver to ground surface, thuseliminating offsets in the data uponre-deployment of the Diver; however,you still require direct access to welland opening of the well casing.

    The Diver is suspended in the wellby a DXT cable which can securelytransmit data to a range of 150meters using 128-bit encryption.This data can be received by theDXD antenna connected to yourArcher, and downloaded andanalyzed instantly using the Diver-Pocket* software installedon your Archer. This method is themost efficient approach formedium to large scale monitoringnetworks and is especially usefulwhere wells are not easilyaccessible.

    BENEFITSWith traditional MODFLOW and FEFLOWmodelingthe input is assigned to the grid or mesh, posingchallenges when the grid or mesh is inadequate oryour modeling objectives change. Using HydroGeoBuilder, model input is defined conceptually,independent of the simulator, which provides thefollowing benefits: Reduce Effort - Define pinchouts and lenses

    using shapes and surfaces and automaticallyconvert to the appropriate grid cells or elements

    Save Time - Use existing raw data assuperelements, and use Triangle1 toautomatically generate the finite element meshand slice elevations from the conceptual model

    Expandable - As your project objectives change,modify the type or size of grid and mesh orchange simulators and easily generate input for aMODFLOWmodel or FEFLOWmodel

    Hydro GeoBuilderConceptual model development for FEFLOW and MODFLOW

    HIGHLIGHTS: Design the conceptual model structure, flow properties, wells, and boundaries,

    and convert to input for FEFLOW or MODFLOW Automatically generate the FEFLOW mesh or MODFLOW grid from multi-layered

    pinchout and discontinuous layers based on your raw data Generate layer elevations that deform to the geology or are layer-independent Convert between UTM, State Plane, Geographic, and Gaus Kruger co-ordinates Automatically assign appropriate flow materials in regions of pinchoutsWork with flexible units for length, conductivity, and flow rates Easily assign tens or hundreds of multi-layered wells to the finite element mesh

    or finite difference grid, with appropriate screen locations and pumping rates Compare borehole data from the conceptual model with the grid or mesh
