MLMux5 Multiplexer
The Canary Systems® MLMux5 multiplexer is designed to expand the number of instruments that can be read by a compatible Automatic Data Acquisition System (ADAS). It supports two switching modes, 5-channel by 4-wire switching, or 10-channel by 2-wire switching. A switch on the face of the module configures the switching mode.
The use of low contact resistance relays means almost universal instrument support, a high degree of lightning protection on the control lines, and virtually infinite channel isolation. The MLMux5 is compatible with a wide range of instruments, including vibrating wire, resistance strain gage, thermocouples, linear potentiometers, and 4-20 mA, among others.
Categories: Cables & accessories, Geo-Structural Instruments
Description
Two control inputs activate the MLMux5 and then advance through the channels. Logic levels for either the enable or clocking input can utilize 3.3V to 12V logic input, with a maximum input of 16V. These control inputs are compatible with a variety of control modules including those manufactured by Campbell Scientific, Sutron and dataTaker.
Transient protection in the form of plasma surge arrestors on the control inputs provides high reliability from electrical transients, whether ESD or lightning. The power inputs are also equipped with transient protection and reverse-polarity protection.
All components, such as terminal blocks, relays, and flash microcontroller, have been selected for ultra-high reliability and function, helping ensure years of reliable and trouble-free operation in demanding environments that may include high heat, humidity, and/or dust.

BOREHOLE ROD EXTENSOMETER
In stock
Rated 0 out of 5
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.

Rated 0 out of 5
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.
NANO TRIAXIAL TILT SENSOR
In stock
Rated 0 out of 5
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

Rated 0 out of 5
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.
