Wireless Tilt/Inclination SenSpot™

Description

The Wireless Tilt/InclinationSenSpot™ sensors offer advanced technology for precise monitoring of tilt and inclination. Utilizing Resensys proprietary sensing, scheduling, and ultra-low power synchronization technology, these wireless tilt sensors provide real-time data on movement, settling, deformation, and abnormal tilting of structural components. Designed to be maintenance-free for a decade, these sensors do not require calibration or battery replacement after installation. The high precision data from these wireless tilt sensors helps in calculating vertical and horizontal displacement of piers, pylons, and spans, ensuring early detection of potential issues.

As part of the Resensys integrity monitoring system, the Wireless Tilt/Inclination SenSpot™ can monitor the smallest movements of structural components such as piers, decks, and bearings on a highway bridge. Additionally, these wireless inclinometer sensors track changes due to temperature variations in bridges, buildings, dams, and other structures. They are ideal for monitoring the deflection, bending, and settling of piers and abutments with high precision, as well as changes in tilt caused by settling, deformation, or loading.
