Wireless Tiltmeter Overview

For long-range, remote readings in geotechnical monitoring.

Measuring inclinations with tiltmeters is essential for the success of many projects: from controlling building response during a tunnelling project, analysing settlements, to tracking changes in the inclination of structures such as bridge piers or historical monuments and dams, to monitoring landslides including berms in open pits.

The Wireless Tiltmeter is a low-power long-range wireless datalogger and inclinometer in a single, compact box. It measures tilt in two (biaxial) perpendicular axes in the plane of the base. It combines a highly precise MEMS sensor plus a radio transmission network. One gateway can support several hundred nodes in the same network.

Measurements with long-range wireless communication and extended battery life sets this inclinometer apart from other comparable products in the market.

The tiltmeter can also be used as a standalone logger for manual monitoring and can be easily configured and connected with a USB cable and an Android phone.
