INCLINOMETER AND PLUMB LINE

Model EAN-25M Inclinometer System

 

EAN-25M vertical inclinometer system is used to measure lateral movement and deformation of earth works or a structure. It provides magnitude of inclination or tilt and its variation with time in structures like retaining/diaphragm walls, piles etc.

EAN-25/M-H horizontal inclinometer system, provides significant quantitative data on magnitude of settlement/heave of foundations and its variation with time. It also provides the pattern of deformation, zones of potential danger and the effectiveness of construction control measures undertaken.

The inclinometer system basically consists of inclinometer casings with couplings, probe with operating cable and datalogger. Accessories like dummy probe, calibration check jig, cable lowering bracket are available on demand
 
Specifications:
System Accuracy: ± 6 mm/30m

EAN-25/2M Vertical Inclinometer Probe
EAN-25/2M consists of two precision accelerometers inside a waterproof stainless steel housing, fitted with two pairs of pivoted sprung wheels. The sprung loaded wheels help to position the probe centrally inside the gage well at any required depth. A six pin connector is provided for connection to the cable.

Operating cable graduated at every 0.5m includes a high tensile straining member and is supplied with a easy to carry reel.
 
Vertical Probe:
Measuring range ± 15° of vertical
± 30°, ± 50° optional
Resolution ± 0.025 mm/500 mm
Temperature limit 0 to 80° C
Dist. between wheels 500 mm
Dimensions

32 mm Ф x 700 mm long

Note: Measuring range is reduced to ± 14° when used with EDI-53INS readout at ± 4 V fs input range.

EAN-25/2M-H Horizontal Inclinometer Probe

EAN-25/2M-H horizontal inclinometer probe is designed to take measurement within horizontally installed inclinometer casing. It is biaxial and is fitted with two pairs of pivoted sprung wheels which can freely rotate on individual bearings. The rear end of probe has provision to fix an eye bolt used to connect the pull cable when taking readings.
 
Horizontal Probe:
Measuring range ± 15° to horizontal
Other specifications are same as EAN-25/2M vertical inclinometer probe
EDI-53 INS Inclinometer Data Logger

The data logger is housed in a rugged weather proof enclosure. It can store readings with date and time with time and date. It is battery operated with an easy to read display. It is supplied complete with software to transfer the data to a PC further processing or for archive purposes.
 
Data Logger:
Display LCD
Resolution 0.0001 V @ 2 V fs range
Range

± 2 V, ± 4 V, ± 8 V (factory configured)

Operating temp. Range

0 to 50° C

EAN-25/1 Casing and Fittings

The inclinometer casings may be installed in a borehole, embedded in fill or concrete during construction or fixed to the face of completed structure. These are self aligning ABS casings with longitudinal keyways at 90° for probe orientation. The casings and couplings (fixed or telescopic) are joined together with pop rivets. Mastic tape is used over the joints to make a waterproof joint.
 
Casing & Couplings:

ABS, 70 mm o.d.,
58 mm i.d., 3 m long

Fixed coupling

ABS, 77 mm o.d.,
160 mm long

Telescopic coupling

ABS, 77 mm o.d.,
400 mm long, 150 mm displacement range

End caps

GTILT  

GTILT software is designed to handle large or small volumes of data from EDI-53 INS inclinometer datalogger. It is suitable for plotting cumulative displacement, incremental displacement and absolute position against depth or elevation. It plots displacement, shear strain, rate of displacement and rate of shear strain against time. All plots are available in the inclinometer groove directions or at a skew angle. Checksums can be viewed in histogram form, allowing an immediate quantitative assessment of the quality of each data sheet. Top-down plots can incorporate independent surveys or surface movement. Lines, polylines, and text can be drawn on the plots to show straitigraphy, piles, tunnels, excavations and so on, with user-definable point sizes and colors.
Model EAN-51M Vertical In-Place Inclinometer System

Like model EAN-25, EAN-51M is used to measure lateral movement and deformations of earth works or a structure, but in this system the probe is left inside the casing for real time monitoring. The in-place sensor probe is fitted with a pair of pivoted sprung wheels. A string of sensors can be positioned inside a casing for a complete deflection profile.

Model EDS-50/51 Direct and Inverted Plumb Line

EDS-50 (direct) and EDS-51 (inverted) plumb lines are used for monitoring tilt of tall structure & high rise buildings and for measurement and monitoring of relative displacement in concrete masonry dam. The readout system consists of reference pendulums and two travelling telescopes (one each for the X and Y axes) for measurement of displacement. An electronic measurement device is optionally available.
