Monitoring Water Levels In Various Settings
In addition to detecting leaks, wireless sensors can be used to monitor water levels in diverse environments. Wireless ultrasonic level sensors can be used to track water levels in lakes, reservoirs, storage tanks, and rivers. Property owners can monitor well volumes and environmental professionals can track groundwater throughout the year. This is especially useful in dryer parts of the country where effective resource management is crucial and could even be coupled with temperature sensors to analyze environmental conditions.
Boat manufacturers and owners can also install these sensors towards the bottom of their watercraft as a safety precaution. This way, if bilge pumps fail, the appropriate people can be notified instantly before major flooding occurs on board.
