WEIR MONITOR VWM-2000
The Geosense® VWM-2000 vibrating wire precision water level monitor utilises a vented vibrating wire force transducer in combination with a cylindrical weight suspended from it to monitor water levels.
The vibrating wire transducer is vented to atmosphere so that any atmospheric changes are automatically compensated.
Description
The transducer and weight are contained within a PVC slotted pipe which can be located within the weir or tank as necessary and the vent tube is terminated within a moisture trap. Periodic change of the desiccant is required.
The cylindrical weight is partially suspended in the water level being monitored and as the water level changes the force on the transducer by the cylinder alters which in turn alters the tension of the vibrating wire.
As with all vibrating wire sensors, the output is frequency and therefore not affected by changes of cable resistance and therefore extremely long cable lengths are possible.

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.
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.
