Wireless Enhanced Displacement Gauge IoT SenSpot™

Description

The Resensys IoT sensor is versatile and provides an easy and inexpensive way to install a scalable solution for distributed structural integrity monitoring. It can measure two separate displacement gauges.

SenSpot™ displacement meter can be used for measuring the progress of the existing cracks in a structure. This device has a sliding element which moves with displacement of structure or growth of a crack.

The displacement SenSpot™comes with IP67 rated transducer from Novotechnik that is well known for its high-quality products. It can be customized per user request to work with other transducers from other third-party manufacturers such as OMEGA or Vishay.

The transceiver and the solar panel can be easily mounted with either flanges or adhesive, both attached to the outer box. The device comes with a high-capacity lithium-ion battery charged by a solar panel. It does not require battery replacement making it almost maintenance free. The whole product meets IP68 standard (completely weatherproof). As a result, it is an excellent choice for crack-development monitoring applications that require the sensors to be installed outside or on other hard to reach locations.

The device needs a Nano SIM card with an active plan that supports 4G LTE and a good cellular coverage to periodically connect to a remote server and send all measured data through the cellular network. It is a completely stand-alone product and does not need any other intermediate device such as a gateway.

IoT sensors can be applied easily to as many critical spots on a structure as needed with minimal installation effort.

This is a completely stand-alone device. It measures, saves, and later sends data through a cellular network to the remote server. With this device, there is no need to use an expensive extra cellular gateway for sending the data. This can significantly reduce the projects overall cost especially for small projects where only couple of sensors are needed.

This product uses Resensys’s proprietary Active RF Technology. Resensys SenSpot™ technology offers a high-performance method for large-scale sensing and ultra-energy efficient wireless communication.
