DEFINITION

Classification: 33/713

Sounding type:

(under subclass 700) Subject matter having means for (a) ascertaining the depth of bodies of fluent material or (b) measuring the distance from a datum to the surface of fluent material.

(1) Note. Such devices for measuring distances from an aerial vehicle to the earth's surface are here included.

(2) Note. See the notes to the class definition of Class 73, Measuring and Testing for a statement of the line for devices for determining depths and distances by sonic or electrical wave means.
