hydrostatic level sensor

Kingmach hydrostatic level sensor include the JMDL-47XXAT smart single-point settlement gauge for buried positions where a defined vertical movement must be followed through construction. It is used for subgrade settlement, embankment heave, base uplift in deep foundation pits, tunnel bottom uplift, dyke compression deformation, and pile foundation settlement. Published range options are 100 mm, 200 mm, 300 mm, and 400 mm. Resolution is 0.01 mm on 100 mm and 200 mm models, and 0.1 mm on 300 mm and 400 mm models. Gauge lengths cover 760 mm, 1240 mm, 1720 mm, and 2210 mm. The assembly includes a settlement plate, electrical displacement sensor, measuring rod with metal flexible conduit, anchor head, extension rod, and bottom anchor head. Its side-exit cable design helps reduce interference during pavement compaction. The product is strongest when the installation depth, plate location, cable route, fill layer, and first stable reading are documented before the buried parts disappear under later work.

Application of  hydrostatic level sensor

Application of hydrostatic level sensor

In foundation pit projects, hydrostatic level sensor are used during staged excavation to track base uplift, nearby pavement settlement, groundwater response, and vertical movement around retaining systems. The timing of each value matters because deformation may change after dewatering, support installation, soil removal, rainfall, or backfilling. Kingmach JMDL-47XXAT can be embedded to follow base uplift or local settlement, while JMCJ-1003/1005 can read magnetic ring depth and groundwater level in boreholes. Hydrostatic instruments may be added where several elevations around the pit need comparison against a reference. The site team should record excavation depth, support level, water pumping condition, adjacent road or building observations, and first stable baseline beside the settlement curve. If movement grows quickly, the response should include checking the sensor and reference first, then comparing support force, wall displacement, groundwater, and visual inspection before deciding whether excavation can continue. This keeps settlement review tied to the actual construction sequence, which is essential because a pit may behave differently at each excavation depth and support stage. A clear record also helps distinguish base rebound from surrounding ground loss or reference disturbance. The review file should also include reference condition, recent site work, nearby sensor behavior, and inspection notes so later teams can interpret the curve clearly.

The future of hydrostatic level sensor

The future of hydrostatic level sensor

Future hydrostatic level sensor will make long-term maintenance analytics more practical. Settlement records are often slow, which means the useful signal may appear over months instead of days. Platforms can compare cumulative settlement, daily rate, seasonal pattern, rainfall, groundwater, traffic loading, filling stage, and excavation history. Kingmach products such as JMYC-62XXAD and JMDL-47XXAT can support this longer view when the baseline and reference point remain stable. Owners will benefit from reports that separate normal consolidation from renewed deformation after new construction, water-level change, or heavy traffic. This is especially important for roadbeds, bridges, buildings, dykes, dams, and reclamation foundations where movement may continue after handover. Future reports should show rate changes, dormant periods, and renewed activity in a way maintenance teams can compare across many assets.

Care & Maintenance of hydrostatic level sensor

Care & Maintenance of hydrostatic level sensor

Magnetic ring hydrostatic level sensor need consistent field habits. For JMCJ-1003/1005, record borehole number, ring depth, water level depth, tape mark, operator, date, battery status, and previous reading each time. The magnetic ring function relies on electromagnetic induction and audible or visual indication, while water level detection responds when the probe contacts water. Different operators should use the same borehole orifice reference mark and the same tape handling method. After field work, clean the probe, dry the reel, inspect the tape cable, check the battery, and note any weak alarm or rough movement in the borehole. Layered settlement data depends on repeated depth reading discipline. A small careless change in reference mark can look like soil compression, so field notes should be plain, dated, and easy to audit.

Kingmach hydrostatic level sensor

Hydrostatic hydrostatic level sensor are useful when several vertical movement points must be compared against a reference rather than read as isolated values. Kingmach JMDL-62XXADT and JMQJ-62XXADT use connected liquid paths and digital output to monitor vertical deformation in structures such as bridges, dams, tunnels, large buildings, and subgrades. The JMDL-62XXADT lists 50 mm, 100 mm, and 200 mm ranges with 0.01 mm resolution and RS485 output. The JMQJ-62XXADT micro range hydrostatic level sensor lists 50 mm and 100 mm ranges, 0.01 mm resolution, RS485 signal, and IP68 protection. These products are most useful when the tube route, reference point, cabinet, and baseline are documented clearly. If the reference is unstable, every curve downstream becomes harder to trust. A good point record also names the reference location, installation elevation, data channel, and maintenance access so later readings can be checked without guesswork.

FAQ

  • Q: What is JMCJ-1003/1005 used for?
    A: It is used to measure layered underground settlement and groundwater level in foundations, subgrades, foundation pits, embankments, and underground structures.

    Q: How does magnetic ring settlement reading work?
    A: Magnetic rings are placed underground; when the probe senses a ring, audible and visual alerts help the operator read depth from the steel tape at the borehole.

    Q: How is water level detected?
    A: The water level component works by water conductivity and alerts when the probe contacts water.

    Q: What accuracy is listed?
    A: The listed measurement accuracy is plus or minus 1 mm.

    Q: What field records are needed?
    A: Keep borehole number, magnetic ring depth, previous reading, current reading, groundwater level, and operator notes together.
