The Pneumatic Hi-K® Slug provides high-quality data for accurate slug testing of hydraulic conductivity (K). The Pneumatic Hi-K® Slug is a kit that is contained in a toolbox and and easily carried from well to well.
Pneumatic slug testing methods require an air tight seal at the well head and air pressure to lower the water level. As air is pressurized in the well, the upward water pressure and the downward air pressure are equal. Once the water level has been lowered to the desired Initial Displacement (H(o)) distance and it is stable, the test is performed by releasing the valve allowing instantaneous release of the air pressure. The water level rises (rising head test) and the pressure transducer and data logger records the changes in water level and time.
The release of the air pressure exhibits a smooth recovery of the water level with minimal (if any) noise. So tests that recover in a few seconds may be tested with small and manageable Initial Displacements (H(o)) coupled with obtaining reliable data sufficient for a confident analysis.

Testimonials...
The Hi-K slug kit worked great, we were able to get some good data on the wells that were giving us issues with the mechanical method. Next time I do slug testing I will definitely be giving you a call again.
- Stuart Holmes, Hydrogeologist, Environment, AECOM.
The Pneumatic Hi-K Slug is very easy to use, with easy to follow instructions and a complete equipment check list. My slug tests were quick to perform and I was able to perform 3 tests in the time in would take to do one conventional test. The resulting data was very smooth, distinguishable (no oscillation or pressure wave) and easy to process. Every Hydrogeologist should have this piece of equipment in their groundwater toolbox.
- Dan Kennedy P.Eng., Klohn Crippen Berger, Vancouver, Canada
We recently used your pneumatic Hi-K Slug test kit on a project with numerous wells. The kit was easy to use, saved us time, and eliminated cleaning that is required using a traditional solid slug. The best part is that the Hi-K kit provided excellent results with smooth test data that was free of early oscillations typical of solid slug tests. I definitely recommend this kit for others. And you can't beat the price. Thanks again for making our job easier.
- Fred Kolberg-Tetra Tech, Germantown, Maryland
My company purchased the Midwest GeoSciences Pneumatic "Hi-K" Slug Test Assembly to use on a series of fractured, deep bedrock wells. The slug provided clean data during slug tests and allowed us to see oscillatory responses in some wells that were not observed using traditional slugs. For my office, it has become the primary method of slug testing when applicable.
The apparatus is well-built, fairly easy to install, and definitely a worthwhile addition to one's field equipment inventory.
- Paul L. D'Annibale, O'Brien & Gere
The Midwest Geo High-K Pneumatic Slug Test Kit was very convenient and easy to use. There was no need to transport water and since there is no solid slug, transducer movement during the test is virtually eliminated. I will definitely continue to use this kit whenever site conditions allow.
- Aaron Ezzell, PE, PG, Terracon Consultants, Inc.

SOLID H(o) SLUG
The Solid H(o) Slug® by Midwest GeoSciences Group is a traditional solid slug for slug testing. It is designed to yield a pre-estimated initial displacement in two-inch diameter wells for improving confidence and accuracy of slug testing.
