Osprey Tilt String
The OTS comprises of a series of high precision, triaxial accelerometers for 360° tilt monitoring at regular intervals.
The digital bus configuration means you have a single data logger monitoring up to 150 devices from an accessible location. This simplifies data management and greatly reduces maintenance costs.
The system is designed for ease of installation, with a number of fixing options specifically catering to a range of monitoring applications. The versatile design allows users to integrate the system to their project in whatever way their imagination allows.
The robust design allows the OTS to be installed conduit free in trenches, boreholes, concrete, tunnels or rail.
Description
Low Power
Osprey’s advanced protocol allows us to carry out sophisticated measurements and data processing without compromising battery life. Our low power design offers compatibility with battery operated data loggers without the need for an external power supply.
Easily Modify String Lengths
The Osprey Tilt String can be cut to length or extended using our 12 Bar pressure rated in-line connectors. The string is light weight and easily coiled into a small enclosure to accomodate excess sensors and cable for short term projects, ready to deploy on another project in the future.
User Defined Digital Commands
The digital output means only one signal cable is required to read an array of Osprey Tilt Strings. We offer a selection of RS-485 protocols including ASCII and Modbus RTU, giving you the flexibility to link your system to a wide variety of data acquisition and telemetry devices.
Move With Your Project
The mounting options available with the Osprey Tilt String allow the OTS to be repurposed for any application. Simply unbolt the sensors from one mount and replace with another to suit your next project, making decommissioning and redeployment quick and easy.

BOREHOLE ROD EXTENSOMETER
In stock
The Geosense® GEO-XB2 borehole rod type extensometer range is used to measure and locate settlement, displacement and deformation in soil and rock.
It consists of a reference head and one or more in-hole anchors each of which is placed at a known depth and connected to the reference head by either a rigid or flexible rod running inside a flexible sleeve, which keeps the rod de-bonded from the grout.
MULTI-POINT VW PIEZOMETER

STRAIN GAUGE PIEZOMETER SGP-3400 SERIES
In stock
The SGP-3400 Series of strain gauge piezometers are designed for monitoring soil pore pressure or changes in water level and are also suitable for dynamic monitoring such as pumping tests.
They are accurate, highly-reliable and suitable for use in the harsh environments often found within civil engineering including water wells, boreholes, dams, reservoirs, rivers, tanks or any other body of water.
TILT BEAM MEMS
In stock
MEMS Tilt Beams are designed for attachment to structures, on either a vertical or horizontal surface, for the measurement of tilt or differential settlement.
They consist of a highly accurate MEMS sensor housed in a fully sealed enclosure which is mounted on a lightweight rigid GRP beam. This can be mounted onto the structure using special anchors. The GRP beam has a very low coefficient of thermal expansion meaning that thermal affects are minimised.
PENDULUM SYSTEM
In stock
HPS-3500 (Hanging) and IPS-3000 (Inverted) Pendulums are used to measure the tilt or rotation by measuring the relative internal horizontal displacement of points along a true vertical line. Each has a tensioned, stainless steel wire and the effects of the earth gravitational forces to guarantee a perfectly vertical line between a fixed point and a tensioning mechanism. Typical applications include concrete dams, bridges and high rise buildings.

HUMIDITY & CORROSION (CorroDec®2G)
In stock
The structural infrastructure must always meet requirements such as performance, stability and durability. These requirements will have a lasting effect on our mobility in the future. The corrosion risk and the corrosion activity of the reinforcing steel largely define these requirements and are determined by various impact and material parameters.
MAGNETIC EXTENSOMETER GXM RANGE
In stock
The GEO-XM settlement system is a magnet extensometer system used typically to monitor settlement and heave in foundations, excavations and embankments.
Data received identifies the depth and position where settlement has occurred as well as the total amount of settlement.
It can also be installed behind retaining structures, such as sheet piles and slurry walls, and above underground openings, such as tunnels and shafts.
