Geosense Portable Inclinometer
The system utilises modern communication and smart devices to enable the tilt data generated by the probe to be managed, stored and transferred directly from site via FTP, API, email or other communication platforms.
The inclinometer system comprises a slimline detachable probe, a robust elongation-resistant cable, lightweight reel with Bluetooth communication to the smart android readout device, with a user-friendly app, plus storage and carry cases for all components.
The probe is fitted with industry standard MEMS biaxial sensors together with a signal conditioning board allowing the calibration factors to be stored within the probe. A digital output signal via the reel is sent to the Smart android device where it is converted to engineering units.
The double Kevlar® reinforced cable and depth markers have been designed and tested with weight up to 40 kg to ensure their long-term stability.
To ensure data is not compromised by electro-magnetic interference and thus become inaccurate, even on noisy sites, the system has been designed and fitted with full 360 degree EMC protection within the probe, cable and reel and is fully tested in accordance with CE and FCC requirements.
