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.
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.

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.
PRESSURE TRANSDUCER VWT-9000 SERIES
In stock
The Geosense® VWT-9000 Series of Pressure Transducers are designed to be connected directly into hydraulic or pneumatic pressure lines by means of a 1/4” BSPF thread. Other thread sizes are available on request.
They are typically used to monitor uplift pressures within dams and to enable manual standpipe piezometers to be upgraded into an automated data acquisition system.

The Tilt Beam is a lightweight, rigid aluminium beam that is used in conjunction with a Triaxial Tilt Node, a NanoPlus or a NanoMacro.
The tilt beam has been successfully used in many applications, including:
- Movement monitoring of any structure
- Longitudinal settlement
- Tunnel convergence/divergence
- Lateral displacements

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.
