Vibrating Wire Piezometer – High-Precision Pore Water Pressure Sensor for Geotechnical and Groundwater Monitoring

The FS-ZXSY-001 vibrating wire piezometer is designed for long-term installation in hydraulic structures, concrete structures, soil structures, or within soil masses to measure seepage (pore) water pressure, while simultaneously measuring the temperature at the installation point.

With optional accessories, it can be used in piezometer tubes and foundation boreholes. The instrument features a fully stainless-steel structure with a compact size of 24 × 120 mm, allowing easy installation in confined spaces. It also includes parameter identification functionality.
