Based on patented SST300 inclinometer, Vigor developed tilt beam sensor for civil engineering industry, by combined various accessories and options, achieve mostly facilitates field applications.
The beam housing SST300 is used to measure rotated angel of two fixed points. Install sensor into hard beam(standard length is 1m, others are optional), fix sensor in monitored structure, by rotated angel can conversion out displacement data of beam length. Many sensors can be integrated to set up a PLC/DAQ system, so end user can remotely monitor horizontal & vertical gesture of the application, such as dam, tunnel and excavation wall. Please refer to picture 1.
Generally, we install the tilt beam sensor with expansion bolt, screw by grout, or epoxy anchor, refer to picture 2.
