Geotechnical monitoring
Logging from vibrating wire instruments installed in ground, slopes and foundations.
Overview
Ground and foundations change over months and years, often where nobody can inspect them directly. Vibrating wire instruments are buried or fixed in place, and a datalogger at the surface reads them at set intervals.
The VW Gauge Monitor is built for field deployment: two 18650 Li-ion batteries, an optional solar charger and an IP65 enclosure. It supports RS485 and Ethernet, and the MQTT, TCP/IP and Modbus protocols.
What is measured
- Readings from vibrating wire instruments
- Temperature at the instrument
