Solinst dipmeters for the professional
Solinst Canada Ltd has been producing high quality measuring instruments for the investigation of groundwater since 1980.
During product development, particular attention is paid to ease of use. For professional use in hydrological measuring operations, emphasis is also placed on a stable construction and particular durability. After its market launch, the Model 101 immediately established itself as a reference product on the American market.
In addition to the products presented on our website, Solinst offers a wide range of other measuring systems for groundwater.
- Special dipmeters
- Groundwater dataloggers
- Groundwater sampler

The solid entry-level instrument for level measurement, Model 101B
The Model 101B is the entry-level product for water level measurement at groundwater monitoring wells. The dipmeter is qualitatively on the same level with the other models, it was only reduced to the most important functions. The groundwater level as well as the position of the probe can be read on the durable plastic measuring tape. The tape measure is available in lengths up to 100m, with matching drum. Furthermore, the tape measure offers laser marking with centimeter graduation.
- Measuring tape length up to 100m
- Buzzer and LED
- durable plastic tape measure
- Measuring operation with standard 9V battery
- Robust drum with ergonomic handle and brake
- Stainless steel measuring probe
Durable stainless steel measuring probe
The probe is made of stainless steel and is waterproof. The measuring point is placed close to the probe tip to minimize water displacement during the measuring process. The connection between the tape measure and the probe is designed for easy changeover to replace the probe one at a time should this become necessary.

The classic among the dipmeters, model 101
In addition to the basic functions, it is possible to regulate the sensitivity of the measuring probe on the Model 101. This makes it possible to eliminate sources of interference and achieve reliable, reproducible measurement results. Measuring tapes are available up to a length of 600m and also as PVDF variant. Two different probes (P2 and P7) also meet higher demands on the measuring instruments. With watertightness and special design for measuring operations in fluctuating groundwater levels, you are equipped for your measuring task.
The Model 101 is ideal for water level measurement at groundwater monitoring wells. There are 2 variants of this dipmeter. The P7 version with a waterproof stainless steel probe attached to a durable plastic (PVDF) measuring tape. This tape measure can be supplied in lengths up to 1500m. Alternatively, there is the P2 version, which has a stainless steel probe with a measuring point shifted up from the tip. This makes it more suitable for fluctuating water levels. For the P2 version, a polyethylene measuring tape is available in lengths up to 300m. Furthermore, the tape measure offers laser marking with millimeter graduation. The groundwater level can be read on the measuring tape, as soon as the probe has made contact with the water surface, a buzzer sounds and an LED on the meter lights up.
- Measuring tape length up to 1500m (P7) / 300m (P2)
- Corrosion and chemical resistant PVDF scale (P7)
- Polyethylene measuring tape (P2)
- 90 hours measuring operation with standard 9V battery
- Automatic shutdown after 8 minutes
- Robust drum with ergonomic handle and brake
- Measuring probe waterproof up to 300m (P7)
- Durable stainless steel measuring probe
The probe is made of stainless steel and is waterproof up to 300m. The measuring point is placed close to the probe tip to minimize water displacement during the measuring process. The P2 measuring probe has its measuring point in the center to better compensate for fluctuations at the water surface. The connection between the tape measure and the probe is designed for easy changeover to replace the probe one at a time should this become necessary.

Integrated temperature measurement, model 201
With the integrated temperature measurement, it is possible to measure a temperature profile in addition to measuring the water level. With this key parameter, you are equipped for the future requirements of environmental measurement technology. The water temperature is displayed on the LCD of the cable drum and covers a measuring range from -20°C to +125°C.
Water temperature and environment
Groundwater temperature has a direct impact on the biological activity of plants and animals. Furthermore, it is an important parameter for the water quality as well as the chemical composition.
Water temperature is a key parameter affecting various physical, chemical and microbial processes. Especially the solubility of gases and the groundwater organisms show a sensitive dependence on the temperature in the water.
This important environmental parameter can be measured uncomplicatedly and reliably with this dipmeter.
- Measuring range from -20°C to +125°C
- Measuring tape length up to 300m
- Corrosion and chemical resistant PVDF tape measure
- 90 hours measuring operation with standard 9V battery

Water level, water temperature, conductivity, model 107
The ideal instrument for measuring temperature conductivity profiles. Conductivity measurement up to 80 mS/cm.
- Measuring tape length up to 300m
- Corrosion and chemical resistant PVDF tape measure
- 90 hours measuring operation with standard 9V battery
