EL In-Place Inclinometer
The in-place inclinometer system consists of a string of inclinometer
sensors permanently deployed in inclinometer casing. The electro-
lytic sensors are similar to those used in EL beam sensors. No
on-site operator is required, since the sensors are not moved. The
system is ideal for data logging and real-time, remote monitoring for
critical applications such as construction control.
The string of inclinometer sensors is positioned inside the casing to
span the zone where movement is anticipated. The casing deforms
with the adjacent ground or structure, causing a change in the tilt of
the sensors inside.
In most applications, in-place inclinometer sensors are connected to
a data acquisition system that continuously monitors movements and
can trigger an alarm when it detects a change or rate of change that
exceeds a preset value.
