Tilt Sensors / Triaxial Tilt Sensor Node
Triaxial Tilt Sensor Node
The Triaxial Tilt Sensor Node is an extremely precise and exceptionally stable three axis wireless tilt sensor.
Variable reporting rates, a robust design and up to a 15 year battery life make this wireless tiltmeter suitable for many environments and applications. The wireless tiltmeter nodes transmit precise readings from the site via one of our wireless communication platforms (FlatMesh or GeoWAN) via a Gateway. Visualise and interact with your data online using the Senceive WebMonitor platform or third party software.
It has been successfully used in many applications, including those measuring:
- Tunnel distortion
- Tunnel heave/settlement
- Embankment slippage
- Structural movement
- Rail track heave/settlement
- Rail trackbed cant and twist
- Integrated triaxial wireless tilt monitor sensor
- Extremely low noise performance
- Resolution of 0.0001° (0.0018 mm/m) and repeatability of ±0.0005° (±0.009 mm/m)
- Integrated long-life battery
- 12 -15 year battery life, including when acting as a relay node within the mesh communications network
- Integrated temperature sensor
- Versatile mounting options
- Waterproof to IP66 / IP67 / IP68
- Firmware is remotely upgradeable over the air via the gateway, reducing costly site visits (FlatMesh)
