EXTENSOMETER GEO-XW100
The GEO-XW100 Rotary Wire Extensometer is designed to monitor the changes in distance between two anchor points up to a maximum of 30 meters apart.
It comprises a rotary potentiometric displacement gauge, an opposing anchor and a stainless steel wire that runs between the displacement gauge and the opposing anchor. With a wire extension kit, the length of the wire can be extended up to a maximum distance of 30 meters.
Description
The displacement gauge is housed within a rugged steel enclosure with a mounting plate for horizontal or vertical mounting.
Two options for installation are available as follows:
- Exposed wire in combination with expansion anchor and eyebolt typically for attaching to rock or concrete.
- Wire running within a protective sleeve where the bottom anchor is mounted in the bottom cap at the end of the protective sleeve. The protective sleeves can either be mounted on posts above ground or buried typically used for slope and/or landslide monitoring.

IPX IN-PLACE EXTENSOMETER
In stock
The In-Place Extensometer (IPX) offers automated monitoring of standard magnetic extensometer installations. The system is designed for a simple, adaptable installation with a single cable connection at the top of the borehole. Its large measurement range accommodates large levels of settlement or heave, and ease of adjustment means it can be reconfigured for changed site conditions such as embankment filling or cutting.
NANO TRIAXIAL TILT SENSOR

- Tunnel heave/settlement
- Embankment slippage (used in conjunction with stake mounts)
- Structural movement
- Rail track heave/settlement
- Rail trackbed cant and twist

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.
