Wireless inclinometer sensor is a compact and intelligent digital inclination sensor designed for structural health monitoring. It can output three-axisinclination angle and three-axis acceleration, using high-capacity lithiumsub-battery(optional rechargeable lithium battery), uploading data once an hour can be used continuously for 3 years. Support 4G full network can transfer data to the cloud.
An inclinometer, also known as a tilt sensor or tilt meter, is an instrument used to measure the angle of tilt, inclination, or slope of an object relative to gravity. It provides readings in degrees, radians, or as a percentage of slope.
Primary Uses:
Construction and Civil Engineering:
- Structural Monitoring: Inclinometers are used to monitor the stability of buildings, bridges, dams, and other structures, especially in geotechnical engineering. They detect any movement or tilting that may suggest instability or the need for maintenance.
- Slope Monitoring: In slopes and embankments, inclinometers track land or soil movement to detect landslides or failures.
Heavy Machinery and Vehicles:
- Stability Control: In construction machinery, agricultural equipment, and military vehicles, inclinometers help operators maintain safe angles of operation to prevent tipping or accidents.
Aerospace and Marine Navigation:
- Aircraft and Ships: Inclinometers are used to measure pitch and roll, helping pilots and ship captains maintain proper orientation relative to the horizon.
Surveying and Mining:
- Borehole Monitoring: In mining, inclinometers are used to measure the deviation of drilled holes from a vertical or horizontal path.
Robotics and Automation:
- Orientation and Positioning: In robotic systems, inclinometers are used to monitor the orientation of parts or machines for accurate positioning and movement control.
These devices are vital for applications requiring precision and safety in relation to changes in tilt or position.
