Magnetic Soil Extensometer

Geo-XM, Magnetic Extensometer,components, GeosenseThe Geosense® GEO-XM settlement system is used typically to monitor settlement and heave in foundations, excavations and embankments. Settlement is identified at the depth/position where the settlement has occurred and as well as measuring the total amount of settlement.

The GEO-XM soil extensometer comprises a series of magnetic targets positioned so that they move freely outside flush jointed access casing or inclinometer casing. The targets may be 3 or 6 Leaf “Spider” targets, magnetic settlement plates or magnetic joints.

Settlement is measured by the relative position of the magnetic targets using a Reed Switch Probe that detects the magnets lowered down through the central access casing. Inclination where desired is measured using a portable inclinometer

Features of Soil Extensometer

  • Measures Total & Incremental Settlement 
  • Simple to Install 
  • Can be used with standard Reed Switch Probe

Applications of Soil Extensometer

  • Excavations 
  • Embankments
