Water Detector

Product Details:

Resistivity (geo-electrical) surveying is one of the most versatile and successful geophysical prospecting methods for ground water prospecting mineral prospecting, ground resistance measurements, geological and geo-technical mapping, bedrock studies, certain civil engineering applications.

The Aquameter's intelligent microprocessor technology employs ingenious methods for extracting subsurface information. It is a popular instrument, because of its single button operation, deep penetration, accurate and reliable results, even in adverse field conditions. The instrument has a facility to measure self potential (SP) which is useful in mineral prospecting and environmental studies.

Product Details:

A ground water detector is a device used to locate and determine the presence of underground water sources. These devices utilize various technologies and methods to detect groundwater, including:

1. Electromagnetic (EM) Induction: EM detectors measure changes in the electrical conductivity of the soil, which can indicate the presence of water. Variations in conductivity are interpreted as changes in soil moisture content, potentially indicating the presence of groundwater.

2. Electrical Resistivity Imaging (ERI): ERI equipment measures the resistance of the soil to electrical current. Wet soil tends to have lower resistance than dry soil, so areas with higher moisture content may indicate the presence of groundwater. ERI can create subsurface images showing variations in resistivity, helping to map underground water sources.

3. Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR): GPR systems use radar pulses to image the subsurface. Changes in the electromagnetic properties of the soil caused by the presence of water can be detected and interpreted to locate groundwater.

4. Seismic Methods: Seismic surveys involve sending sound waves into the ground and measuring their reflection and refraction to infer subsurface characteristics, including the presence of water-bearing formations.

5. Borehole Logging: Borehole logging involves lowering sensors or probes into existing boreholes to measure properties such as electrical conductivity, natural gamma radiation, and acoustic velocity, which can provide information about groundwater presence and quality.

6. Magnetometry: Magnetometers measure variations in the Earth's magnetic field caused by differences in the subsurface composition. Certain geological formations associated with groundwater may exhibit distinctive magnetic signatures.
