IN-PLACE TILT METER MEMS
The MEMS In-Place Tilt Meter measures uniaxial or biaxial tilt, which is measured from the plane(s) perpendicular to the base.
It is designed to be installed in either the vertical or horizontal position by either bonding, bolting or strong magnetic fixing directly to a structure or mounting plate
Description
The tilt sensors, based on well-established MEMS technology, are mounted within a rugged, heavy-duty waterproof die-cast metal enclosure suitable for the harsh environments found within construction and building industries.
Thermal effects of the MEMS sensor is minimal but in order to compensate for the effects of temperature on the enclosure, mountings and structure, the unit is fitted with an integral thermistor.
The digital RS-485 output signal provides the ultimate in accuracy together with the advantage of being able to create a digital BUS system where all sensors can be linked together and cable qantities significantly reduced.
Each unit is individually calibrated to provide the ultimate in system accuracy and repeatability.

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.
BOREHOLE ROD EXTENSOMETER

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.

The Nano range uses the same core platform as our other tilt sensors, so it can deliver a similar level of performance and reliability, all in a small and robust enclosure. Nanos have been successfully used in many applications, including:
- Tunnel distortion
- Tunnel heave/settlement
- Embankment slippage (used in conjunction with stake mounts)
- Structural movement
- Rail track heave/settlement
- Rail trackbed cant and twist
