History

Rec No.DateLoc FromTitleLoc ToNotes
4655 2020-08-04 Factory none Disposed Disposed none The sensor was unrepairable and Campbell Sci disposed of it. Note from Campbell: "There are cracks in the cable almost the the entire length as well as what appears to be a repair in an attempt to seal the cable. Water got inside the probe and shorted out the board. The sensor and cable are about 7.5 years old, neither one is repairable."
4648 2020-07-29 Lab none Shipped Factory none Sent back to Campbell for repair on RMA # 32280.
4630 2020-07-23 Lab none Tested Lab none This sensor browned out the power at East End. I found one bad nick in the cable but after opening it up I did not see any damage to the conductors there. I plugged it into a power supply in the lab and it immediately pulled the 12V supply down to 7V. This needs to be sent to Campbell.
4623 2020-07-21 East End Water Level Removed Lab none Removed from EE and brought back to the lab to repair a chewed section of the cable.
4689 2018-09-18 East End Water Level Moved East End Water Level Position adjusted when troubleshooting. From field notes:
Top of pipe to sensor = 66 cm
Top of pipe to water = 30 cm
Sensor depth under water should be 66-30=36cm
Sensor = 0.66psi ~ 46 cm
2380 2015-01-20 Lab none Installed East End Water Level Reinstalled after being removed when the scaffolding fell over. Installed at 88cm below ground level. Water level was 8cm agl.
2379 2015-01-05 East End Water Level Removed Lab none Removed from the site due to the tower falling over in the wind on 2014-12-30. Likely undamaged.
4688 2014-04-03 East End Water Level Moved East End Water Level Moved up 93.6 cm (sensor changed from 2.06 psi to 0.73 psi)
2378 2013-12-19 Lab none Installed East End Water Level Installed on the East End tower. From field note calculations, sensor was installed 82cm below ground level.
Top of the pipe to ground = 53 cm
Water level was at ground surface
Well pressure: 1.17 psi ~ 82 cm
