Continuous Tube Displacement Transducer

Continuous Tube Displacement Transducer KWL-E 100mm

This displacement transducer measures the vertical displacement of civil engineering structures such as bridges. It is connected to a reference water tank at an immovable point by a connecting pipe, and measures the displacement with respect to the water surface in the tank. 
Inside the displacement transducer is a detector that constantly detects and tracks the water surface using a servo mechanism, and a circuit that electrically converts the amount of movement of the detector. 
The displacement of the structure is measured as the relative displacement of the reference water surface to the displacement transducer. 
Our data logger is used for measurement, allowing automatic measurement of multiple points. 
A servo mechanism is used to detect the reference water surface, and the circuit stability has been further improved to ensure stable measurement over a long period of time. (Built-in arrester)

Bedrock Displacement Transducer

Bedrock Displacement Transducer KLB-B 100mm (-20 to +80mm) 

The KLB-B bedrock displacement transducer measures the amount of displacement between the mounting surface and a measuring point in bedrock. 
The KLB-B consists of a bedrock displacement transducer KLB-B, a hydraulic anchor (KLF-11/12), and a connecting rod (KLF-21). The KLB-B is equipped with up to 8 displacement transducers, so that 8 hydraulic anchors can be fixed in one borehole (φ66 mm or more for 1 to 6 points, φ86 mm or more for 7 or 8 points) for measurement. The amount of displacement between the displacement transducer and anchor is detected as relative displacement through the rod. 
The anchors are anchored to the bedrock by applying water pressure to the anchors at predetermined measuring points in the borehole using a pump from the ground.
