Automatic Settlement Profiler (ASP)
The Automatic Settlement Profiler (ASP) uses the hydrostatic principle to provide high precision, near real-time distributed settlement monitoring beneath structures or fill.
The system comprises a series of pressure transducers sealed within a fluid filled hose. Differential pressures measured across the system translate to change in elevation, which overtime indicate settlement or heave of soil structures.
As the system is sealed, it is not affected by barometric pressure changes, nor does it require an external reservoir.
Product Features
- Robust design well suited to the construction environment
- Self-contained – no flushing, deairing or external reservoir required
- Digital Output – reports elevation changes in millimetres
- Sensor spacing options to suit your ground conditions and budget
- Easy installation – direct bury or install within conduit
- Large measurement range well suited to soft soils, but precise enough for stiff soils
- Use for cross section or long section – or both!
- Low power, single cable bus allows up to 50 nodes to be monitored from a single digital data logger
- Measures change in elevati on, not rotation – ideal for uneven ground
- Discrete measurements – no accumulation of errors
Applications
- Tailings
- Storage Facilities
- Bridge Abutments
