 CONCLUSION

3. • Julius Berger Pilling + Geotechnical Specialists (PGS) carried out a
Reconnaissance survey to check the faulty water well pump at National
Institute of Legislative and Democratic Studies.
•
• The geotechnical investigation is aimed at obtaining information about the
faulty pumps i.e., to determine the pumping machine that isn’t functioning
well, identifying the problem, and finding a solution Therefore, Water level
Monitor was recommended for this phase of the project.

5. WATER LEVEL MONITORING

6. • The proposed project site plot 307, Cadastral zone, Umaru musa Yar’adua
Expressway, Airport Road, Abuja.
•
• The site can be accessed through Umaru Musa Yar’Adua Road.

7. • Water level monitoring system is a sophisticated approach that was employed
to ensure optimal pump performance and safeguard its longevity.
• A water level monitor, complemented by three strategically positioned
electrodes, forms the crux of this innovative system.

8. THREE ELECTRODE CABLES

9. • During the test, The first electrode is thoughtfully secured alongside the
pumping machine during its insertion back into the borehole. A second
electrode, aptly termed "Minimal," is meticulously fastened just above the
pump machine. Meanwhile, the third electrode, known as "Maximum," is
securely tied further up the borehole, surpass the minimal level.
• This method serves a dual purpose: preserving the pump's integrity and
facilitating seamless water level monitoring. The operational logic is
ingeniously simple yet highly effective.

10. • The pump only activates solely when the water level reaches the third
electrode (maximum), ensuring a robust flow. Conversely, it promptly
deactivates the moment the water level descends to the second electrode
(minimal).
• By design, the pump remains consistently submerged, as the minimal level is
strategically positioned above the pump machine. This precautionary
measure is especially critical given the nature of the pump, because the pump
is a type prone to heating, reliant on a continuous water flow for cooling.

11. • In essence, this meticulous practice not only acts as a fail-safe for the pump
but also streamlines water level monitoring. It embodies an innovative
solution that not only enhances pump efficiency but also contributes to
resource conservation by ensuring the pump operates optimally within the
water's cooling embrace.
• This thoughtful integration of water level monitoring and electrode
placement exemplifies a commitment to both technological ingenuity and the
sustainable management of essential resources.

14. • A sophisticated water level monitoring system has been implemented
alongside a pumping machine using three electrodes strategically placed in a
borehole. The pump activates at the maximum water level electrode and
deactivates at the minimal level, ensuring efficient cooling and protection of
the pump. This innovative practice optimizes water usage while safeguarding
the pump's longevity and efficiency.
