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.

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.

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.

DRIVE-IN PIEZOMETERS WP-3400 & SGP-3500 SERIES

,

In stock

Drive-in piezometers, also referred to as push-in piezometers, are designed for installing in soft clays, organic or fine grained cohesionless soils typically with a SPT-N value less than 10. They are available with a CPT fitting or 1” BSP thread. Depending on the depth and type of soil, they can either be pushed directly into the soil from ground level to the required depth or pushed into the base of a CPT test or drilled borehole.
