A standard Wave-Stick will not
function in a stilling well! For
stilling wells 40-55 mm a type
Wave-Stick SW can be used.
Further requirements concerning stilling wells:
• The well must be electrically conductive.
• Minimum inside diameter of well: 40 mm (1.57"). (BM 70 P: 80 mm,
better > 100 mm).
• If possible, use only smooth walled, straight stilling wells. If nevertheless an assembled stilling well
is necessary, abrupt changes in diameter along the pipe should be less than 1 mm (0.04"). Surface
roughness of the inside of the pipe should not be more than + 0.1 mm (0.004").
• For the BM 70 P the antenna types 1s, 2s, 3s or 4s have to be used to achieve a high measuring
accuracy.
