Pneumatic Piezometer

RST Pneumatic Piezometers monitor pore water pressure in geotechnical applications where stability levels are critical, such as in embankments and slopes.

Description

RST Pneumatic Piezometers monitor pore water pressure in geotechnical applications where stability levels are critical, such as in embankments and slopes. They utilize a direct reading pneumatically operated diaphragm, making operation simple while ensuring long term stability and high accuracy at a low cost. Employing the lowest (0.002 cc) displacement available, measurements can be made under essentially zero volume change conditions. Time lag problems are minimized, and accuracy improved.
