vanwaltKISS – XS

vanwaltKISS – the Keep It Simple Sensing system is now available with our 16mm narrow diameter Keller sensor to monitor water level and temperature. This makes this logger a unique and accessible solution for those 19mm wells. KISS-XS uses a sensor that is offered with vented cable, so no barometric compensation is required.
