Background of invention: This invention relates to the scanning of existing or newly drilled borewells to study the fac-tors like which affects the performance of the borewell system ,like formation of borewell, casing lenth, casing condition, seating condition of casing in the borewell, dry gaps, present water level water gaps, silt, obstruction due to holders and depth of borewell without installig motor and pump directly for testing purpose.
so many experiments are conducted to carry out this invention successfully.
Abstract: The problem faced by the farmers to install the
submersible pump and motor for a particular depth for perment
source of water. In a newly drilled invisble borewell, we cannot
judge at what depth the water channels present and gives
permanent source of water.
Previously the farmers fix up the motor and pump
approximately by trail and error for better results, it is a very time consuming task and even though borewell cannot work properly. To over come thease problems I directed to see the structure of earth crest directly by means of scanning technical. Were we can see the entire structure and function of borewell.
The scanning system for existing or newly dried borewell is very useful instrument to note details of borewell to confirm whether the borewell works healthy or not without install

king a motor and pump to the borewell directly for testing, the borewell scanning equipment mainly containg monitor, control unit, scanning unit. The signal revived by the scanner with the help of illumination of lamp or bulb in the borewell is converted in to display signals on the monitor through cable and control unit, where we can see the invisible details of the borewell directly on the monitor, by confirming the condition of borewell suggested to install the pump and motor. The invention is successfully working, number of borewells are scanned so fonscanning equipment suitable to scan 4, 6,8, 10,12 inches bore wish receptivity.
objective of invention: The borewell scanning system will aim at the following points.
1. To solve the scarcity due to nonavailablity of surface water and resources at deep level.
2. Borewell scanning system saves the cost of farmers and there by giving predetermined information to be invested on motor, pump, cable, power house and electric supply. By knowing, the depth at where the sufficient water gaps avail-blew or not to install the motor and pump.
3. To avoid repetitive drilling of borewells and by repairing existing one after scanning.

4. The environment point if view practice of drilling new
borewells affects fall of ground water and scarcity of water occurs. 5.The borewell scanning system useful to educate the farmers regarding existing borewell by forecasting useful data after scanning a borewell .
6. The bore well scanning system by forecasting useful data to educate the customer about underground water at that particular area or site and direction of water flow in the bore well after scanning a newly drilled borewell,
7. The borewell scanning system monitors the design data to farmers at anytime without any modification , change or disturbance upon the existing system.
Advantages of borewell scanning system: The system provide significance by forecasting useful data. The system can able to scan Invisible conditions of existing or newly drilled borewell.
1. Length of casing.
2. Condition of casing(In case of old borewells)
3. Seating condition of casing at rock surface after subsoil.
4. Formation of borewell.
5. To identify dry gaps (Empty layers of earth crest). 6.Present water level indicates water level at that area or zone

7. To identify water gaps or water channels.
8. To Identify the direction of flow of water in the borewell.

9. To identify silt (Loose formation in between rock surfaces).
10. To identify any obstruction in the borewell to install motor.
11. To identify bolders.
12. The borewell scanning system have proved economical to
the user by feeding information to select suitable submers Bible pump and motor to at what depth water channels evadible .number of stages and HP required . 13.The borewell scanning system can able to scan invisible conditions have proved better than geological survey report by saving sampling cost. 14 The borewell scaning system avoids sample collection and testing of earth density to erect pillers for multistoried building by scaning a single borewell at the particular site to what extent subsoil and hard rock availble. These are the some of the major advantages of the borewell scaning system.
Principle of operation :- The visual signals are converted into display signals on the monitor in the borewell containing high hydrostatics pressure of water. The hydrostatic pressure of borewell is more compared to open wells. The pressure in the borewells increases with respect to depth of the borewell. The scaner which is used to scan the borewell is designed to withstand hydrostatic pressure of water. As depth increases pressure also increases on scanner body. The 12 voltas bulb or lamp is used along with scaner to illuminate borehole surface; by allowing scanner and lamp together into theborewell

through the cable graduated with foot marks and a cable is supported by a PVC string to avoid elongation of cable. Not-in the details of borewell on the monitor the image can be recorded to VHS cassata or to pc further reference.

After setting the camera in to the scanner body the bottom side is closed by 20 mm transperent Acrylic sheet 20. So that the Acrylic sheet 20 is fitted in to the scanner body by pressing through hydraulic press. So that no water enters in to the scanner body for any depth of water and any hydrostatic pressure.
The other side or top side of the scanner body Is inserted by tapping four numbers of M6 screws 19b at 90^ each at periphery in to the scanner body so that no entry of water along the screws in to the scanner body. The inner end of the screws

are connected to respective wires of scanner ,a b,c are +ve and f is -ve .The outer end of screws i.e., terminals 20 connected to a,b,c,+ve and f -ve of the cable 17. The entire terminals 20 are completely insulated with Nitrile rubber 21a, are enclosed by a conical shaped mild still cover plate 21. The cover plate 21 is clamped to scanner body by four number of M6 screws 21(b) at 90° each circumferentially to avoid entry of water in to the terminals.
A thermometer 21(d) is installed along with the scanner to note down the temperature of the bore well water. The tern-perturb of the borewell also indicates the condition of source. The lamp 22 is protected by insulating araldite 22(d) on the lamp cap 22(c), neck portion 22(a) and lamp terminals
22(e) lamp terminals is soldered to wire 13 d+ve, e-ve respects-

After first layer of araldite 22(d) coating, second layer is coated by metal paste 22(b) of 8mm thickness leaving shell portion clear finally the first and second layer is covered by araldite 22(d). The whole lamp is dried under sunlight for half and hour. The lamp 22 glows at any depth and any pressure of water without burning.
Each lamp can be used to scan at least 10 borewells. The intensity of lamp 22 controlled by a 300 watts dimmer 6 through 75v 5Amps transformer 5. The lamp is adjusted at a distance of 10 inches from base of scanner to capture image clearly.
By noting the image of magnet on the monitor, water flow

direction can be identified . The magnetic needle is suspended at a distance of 12 inches from the scanner The scaner is hoocked 21(b) to string 17(a).
Fig. 4a First stage Video Amplifier:- 8a is the first stage amplifier conected to cable 17 at 500 feet from the scaner 19. The 8a video amplifier is enclosed in a container to withstand leakage, hydrostatic pressure and short circuites from the water inside the borewell.
The container 8(a) Is made up of 75mm shaft X 160mm long bored to enclose video amplifier circuit along with metal paste to make the enclosure empty i.e., free from air. 19(b) are, four M6 screws are inserted by tapping into the body of first stage amplifier body at the top. Similarly four number of M6 screws are inserted into Tefflon plate 8(b) of 30mm thickness by tapping. This Tefflon plate pressed into the body of first stage amplifier body 19(a). The first stage amplifier is connected to inner side of screws 19(b) to respective terminals.
The out side the screws 19(b) are terminals 20 are connected to respective wires a,b,c +ve and f -ve of cable 17. These terminals 20 are insulated by Nitrile rubber 21(a) on both sides of the amplifier body 19(a). These terminals 20 and Nitrile rubber 21(a) are enclosed by a 2mm thickness conical shaped mild steel cover plate 21 which is clamped to first stage amplifier body 19(a) on both sides by M6 screws to protect terminals 20 from short circuits inside the bore well containing hydrostatic pressure.
