Overview
The LevelSender is a low cost device designed to provide wireless telemetry from Solinst loggers in the field, directly to multiple email addresses and an SMS recipient. Ideal for cutting down time needed to go to site as you can receive data direct to your smart device.
As standard, each LevelSender system has a single connection port for one datalogger. A splitter can be purchased in addition to provide connections for two dataloggers, allowing a Levelogger and Barologger to be installed in the same well.
Each data report sends information on water level, temperature, conductivity, barometric, or rainfall, status updates and battery level.
Operation of the LevelSender
The LevelSender is setup using the LevelSender PC software and a USB connection. Data is collected at the programmed sample rate, and sent to the ‘Home Station’ and email and SMS at the programmed report rate. Dataloggers can also be programmed to record separately in their internal memory.

As the Levelogger App Interface will not connect directly to the top of a Solinst datalogger, it is necessary to have connection accessories. With the Levelogger or Rainlogger, one of the following accessories is required:
- Direct Read Cable, clients use this option to suspend dataloggers in the field when they wish to communicate downhole.
- When working with Leveloggers that are suspended from wireline, or cord, the units must be removed from the well and connected to either a Direct Read Cable (as above) or an Optical Adaptor.
- For the LevelVent, just connect to the unit via the Vented Cable and LevelVent Wellhead that all units are suspended from in the field – no other connection accessories are required.
- The AquaVent communication connection is made from the App Interface to the AquaVent Wellhead using an App Connector Cable that is ordered separately.
- Program and start dataloggers in the field.
- Simplify data management in the field by transporting and using less equipment.
- View real-time readings.
- Download and e-mail logged data files.
- Calibrate LTC Leveloggers (NEW).
- Run the diagnostic utility (NEW) – used for troubleshooting
Leveloggers. Provides detailed information on the datalogger,
and includes options for running a self-test, doing a memory
dump and creating/emailing reports.
1. It's easy- A LevelSender can be simply connected to your Levelogger through a direct read cable.
2. It's compact- A LevelSender can fit in a 2" well, allowing for discrete deployment.
3. It's efficient- Programming and setting up the LevelSender is really fast, it's also effortless to make remote changes to the data collection schedule.
4. It's convenient- You can get water level data without having to visit the site, and you get to choose how the data is sent to you- via home station PC, email, or straight to your smartphone via text.
5. It's inexpensive- LevelSender software is free, and purchasing a LevelSender itself is fairly reasonable. As well as helping to cut out site visits, reducing travel and labour costs.
