Hydrants in areas where temperatures are consistently below freezing, have a higher tendency to freeze. These hydrants are dry barrel type, where the water should not remain in the barrel after use. Hydrants that have water in the barrels after use need to be pumped out to avoid freezing in the winter. The reasons for water remaining in the barrel could be, a leaking main valve, clogged drain plugs or high-water table. Monitoring these hydrants with the Hydrant Drain Meter HYD-10, allows cities and municipalities to avoid safety issues of non-functioning hydrants due to freezing. The Hydrant Drain Meter HYD-10 can measure the depth of water in the hydrants barrel if any. The meter comprises of a metal probe fitted to a flexible twisted color-coded cable which is wound on to a portable hand reel containing an electronic switched circuit, visual indicators and batteries. The Hydrant Drain Meter is simple to use and is portable which allows it to be used easily at many locations. The twisted color-coded cable allows the probe to be easily dropped inside the hydrants port cap and removed without any resistance. The Color-coded wires allow the user to quickly identify the depth without needed to reference the foot measurements. The Hydrant Drain Meter HYD-10 has a 10 foot measuring depth and comes with pre-installed (2) 9 Volt batteries and a carry bag.
