Rate of Change Graph/ Sensor Level Indicator 

 

Indicates how quickly the current live reading is changing. The rate of change graph helps you get 
a feel for stable and unstable water pressures which lets you determine when a test will yield good 
results or when the pressure is too volatile to test. 
 
The rate of change graph also coincides with the sensor location inside the Mako when held in the 
proper vertical testing orientation.  This allows the tester to level the sensor appropriately when 
testing on DC

BA’s, SVBA’s and PVBA’s. 

 

 
 

Stable Differential Pressure 

When the pressure is stable, the Rate of Change Graph will look like the example above or have 
one to two units filled in either direction.
