Solinst Model 103 Wireline Tag Lines

Overview

The Solinst Tag Line uses a weight attached to a laser marked cable or tape, and is principally designed for use during the installation of monitoring wells. The Tag Line also provides a simple method to measure the depth to the bottom of a well.

The Tag Line is perfect for use when installing Solinst Model 403 CMT Multilevel Systems, as you can easily measure the depth to the top of a backfill sand or bentonite layer during the completion of a well. It is also ideal as a multipurpose marked support line.

The cable or tape is mounted on a sturdy free-standing reel with a carrying handle, weight holder and brake.

Laser Marked Cable

The Tag Line uses durable polyethylene coated 1,6 mm (1/16") stranded stainless steel wireline with a minimum break strength of 122 kg (270 lbs). It comes in standard lengths of 30 m to 300 m (100 ft to 1000 ft). Other lengths are available by request.

Markings are clearly and accurately laser etched every 5 centimeters or every 1/4 foot of the cable. The laser markings allow the cable to run smoothly over the Tape Guide.

Stainless Steel Tags

The standard stainless steel tag weight is 0,68 kg (1,5 lbs) and measures 19 mm x 30 cm (3/4" x 1 ft). A narrow tag weight, 13 mm x 30 cm (1/2" x 1 ft), weighing 0,30 kg (0,65 lbs), is also an option. Tag weights have tapered ends to minimize hang-ups during deployment and return to surface, and can be clipped on and off the cable or tape. This allows the use of the reel-mounted marked cable or tape for other uses.

Tape Guide

A Tape Guide is provided with each Tag Line. It can be placed over the top of the well casing for ease of use and to protect from damage on rough edges. It can also increase reading accuracies.
