The 615 S and 615 SN shielded drive-points have a single use,
1-1/2" (38 mm) dia. shield to avoid smearing and plugging of
the screen during installation. The strengthened connector at
the top of the drive-point acts as an annular seal, which avoids
contamination from higher levels in the hole.
The Model 615 Drive-Point Piezometer is designed as an
affordable method to monitor shallow groundwater and soil
vapor in suitable conditions.
The Drive-Points attach to inexpensive 3/4" (20 mm) NPT
stainless steel drive pipe.
The Drive-Points are designed for
single use installations, and not for removal and reuse. Solinst
Drive-Point Piezometers are most often installed as permanent
well points. They can also be used for temporary, short term
monitoring applications.
Higher quality samples can be obtained when polyethylene or
PTFE-lined tubing is attached to the stainless steel drive-point.
Groundwater sampling and hydraulic head measurements can
be taken within the tubing using small diameter equipment, as
described overleaf.
Solinst Drive-Point Piezometers can be driven into the ground
with any direct push or drilling technology, including the Manual
Slide Hammer shown at right. To avoid clogging or smearing of
the screen during installation, a shielded version is also available.
