Cable and Accessories
Three types of cable are available for our sensors: Standard Poly, Vented Poly, and Stainless Steel. The poly cable has two conductors, shield, drain, and Kevlar strength member, with a smooth polymer jacket. This jacket is tough enough for applications up to 1500 ft, and has a low coefficient of friction to permit easy recovery from sounding tubes. The stainless cable is double armored stainless steel, and is ideal for deeper applications, or where ruggedness and long lasting capability with no stretching are important. Our stainless has been used successfully in applications up to 6300 ft. It is recommended for settings greater than 1000 ft.

Accessories
Stainless Cable Hanger
This versatile stainless steel hanger can be installed after the cable termination has been made and provides an appropriate support for transducers hanging in a well.
Stainless Steel Kellum Grip Cable Hanger
Pass-through / Cord Grip
Sink Weight
This provides a “cage” sink weight/anchor for transducers installed on the bottom of wastewater tanks. 4” high x 4” diameter and approximately 3 lbs.
Transducer weights and NPT transition fittings
Custom ss accessories available upon request.
Dri-Box Termination Enclosure
This provides a polycarbonate NEMA 4X rated termination enclosure for vented pressure transducers. Separate gland nuts are incorporated for the electrical input and output and the PMC breather vent provides barometric reference without ingress of water. A field replaceable desiccant module features a moisture status indicator visible through the clear cover.
MP-11 Vent Tube Moisture Protection
For vented gauge transducers this provides total isolation of the vent tube from atmosphere by using a 3” diameter nitrogen-filled Mylar sphere which changes volume with barometric pressure. Maintenance free for the life of the installation.
Desiccant tubes with fittings – Replaceable based on desiccant color
Splice kit
Field-installed with a heat source for shrink wrap. Now submersible but stronger than the original cable.
Pigtails, power supply, and custom application cables

Dyno Winch System
Deep well cable deployment and recovery system
• Available for rental or purchase
• Variable speed, torque-controlled hydraulic winch
• Can handle up to 10,000 ft of double armored stainless steel cable
• Used in conjunction with high quality Dynotek stainless steel pressure transducers and cable
• Gas engine or electric motor driven
The Dyno Winch is a field ready system engineered to provide safe and reliable deployment and recovery of downhole measurement devices for pump control or well testing in deep environments. The system is recommended for use in conjunction with the submersible Dynotek Slimline and other downhole sensors using Dynotek stainless steel cable or other rugged cable systems in wells up to 10,000 ft deep. Each system is set up for the particular use it will be put to, including parameters such as speed of insertion and recovery, depth, pull strength, pressure relief, mounting configuration and other requirements.
