Overview

The Heron Interface Meter is a portable oil/water interface meter that measures the thickness of DNAPL and LNAPL layers as thin as 1mm.  The meter features a stainless steel probe and a Kynar jacketed NTS certified tape with stainless steel conductors.  Tape lengths are available from 15m to 150m (50ft to 500ft) and all Heron Interface units are backed by an incredible 10-year warranty.
