DEPTHOMETER WITH FLOORSTAND
The Cavins Depthometer has no equal for quick, accurate wire
line measurements of oil, gas and water wells, particularly when
perforating, bailing, cleaning out, swabbing, single shot, or similar
operations. It has proven valuable in both on-shore and off-shore
operations. This tool is also used for measuring armored cable for
submersible pumps. The Cavins Depthometer has made “string-
ing-in” obsolete, and is being adopted as standard equipment for
production and well drilling operations. The Cavins Depthometer is
available for 7/16" – 5/8" O.D. wire lines and 3/4" – 1" O.D.
The range for which the Depthometer is to be used must be
specified on the order. If the tool is to be used for both ranges, an
extra main measuring wheel can be supplied, which can be
exchanged in the field in a few minutes time. Cavins Depthometers
are available for recording measurements in feet or meters. They
can be supplied with all bronze bearing construction Model “BL or
all ball-bearing construction Model “CL”.
When ordering, please state the following information:
Range of Wire Line size
Measuring in feet or meters
Model “BL” All Bronze Bearing type
Model “CL” All Ball Bearing type with or without
carrying case and stand or with Carrying Case

Each Cavins Depthometer bears a Model Number and Serial
Number. The range of size lines for which it is to be used is
stamped on one spoke of the main wheel. When ordering spare
parts please mention the Model, Serial Number and Wire Line
size.

DEPTHOMETER EYE BOLT HANGER
To facilitate the safe handling of the Cavins
Depthometer on rigs where it is impractical or
impossible to securely anchor to the usual
Floor Stand, an Eye Bolt Hanger can be sup-
plied. It can be supported from a sand line or
cat line from the rig top. The hanger engages
the Depthometer in exactly the same manner
in which the floor stand is attached and sim-
plifies the removal of the tool.
