CGEO-TILTG MEMS Tiltsensor

Description

CGEO-TILT1/TILTG Tiltsensor are suitable for monitoring the inclination of building structures. The sensors can be directly embedded or surface-mounted on buildings, tunnels, bridges, etc. The CGEO-TILT1/TILTG models include built-in temperature sensor, allowing for simultaneous monitoring of environmental temperature changes. The CGEO-TILTG is box type tiltsensor.

Applications

Brick and stone buildings

Bridges and dams

Differential levels

Tunnels

Operation

The Model CGEO-TILT1 MEMS Tiltsensor is designed for attachment to structures, once the location for the MEMS Tiltsensor has been established the position is marked out, ensuring that the sensor is correctly orientated towards the direction of movement. The marked locations are drilled to depth and the 8mm shell anchors supplied with the Tiltsensor are installed. Studding is screwed into the shell anchors, leaving a sufficient length to incorporate the bracket and the Tiltsensor. A spirit level is used to check that the Tiltsensor is level in both directions, and then the nuts are securely tightened before the Tiltsensor is finally wired into a datalogger.

CGEO-TILTG is a small-range tiltsensor with high-precision (Resolution is up to 0.2”) which is itself placed in an adjustable mount. The sensor is fixed to the structure. Once installed, thumbwheels at one end allow the sensor to be adjusted to the zero position using a handheld readout.
