RG Impeller Flowmeter Probe

Impeller Flowmeter Probe

A range of high-sensitivity impeller flowmeters is offered by RG to satisfy most borehole size requirements and expected flowrates.

PRINCIPLE OF MEASUREMENT
All the probes are equipped with lightweight helical impellers mounted on double sapphire bearings for maximum sensitivity. The impellers contain magnets which actuate low-drag Hall-effect switches within the probe to detect impeller rotation. Separate log channels record the time of rotation according to fast and slow timebases for improved resolution at high and low flow rates. Uphole and downhole rotations are distinguished within the sonde. The RG impeller flowmeter gives a direct log measurement of cable speed to aid this procedure.

 

   
FEATURES
Jewelled bearings for minimum friction
Low-drag sensors
Large or small impeller heads
Cable-speed readout
MEASUREMENTS
Flow
Cable velocity
Natural gamma (optional)
APPLICATIONS
Water Flow measurement within the boreholes
Location of permeable zones
Casing leak detection
OPERATING CONDITIONS
Borehole type Open/cased hole, water-filled
Centralisation recommended
The probe is designed for stationary measurements only. Normal logging consists of a series of stationary point measurements across the zone of interest.
