Cabling

The cabling between the logging facility and probes
can be either:

1. SENTEK specific cable

SENTEK has undertaken to produce its own cable
based on the exact electrical specifications of the
TYFLO cable:



UV resistant outer sheath with standard colors of
inside cables



solid filled sheathing to minimize water
travelling down inside of the sheath into the
access tubes.



suitable for direct burial

Specifications of SENTEK cable are:
