Displacement Transducers (VW)

Displacement Transducers (VW)
The Model 4450 Displacement Transducer provides remote readout capability for borehole extensometers. They are particularly useful where other types of vibrating wire sensors are used and/or for installations where long cable runs are required. The Model 4450 can also be installed between borehole anchors, in conjunction with the requisite length connecting rod, to provide a permanent,…

Soil Extensometers (VW)

Soil Extensometers (VW)
The Model 4435 Soil Extensometer is designed to be installed, in series, to measure horizontal strain and settlements in earthfill or rockfill dams. The 4435 has flanges on either end, which enable a series of extensometers to be bolted together forming long strings of sensors so that complete profiles of deformation or settlement can be…

Deformation Meters (VW)

Deformation Meters (VW)
The Model 4430 Deformation Meter with flanged ends is designed to measure longitudinal deformation in dams and embankments. It can also be grouted or held in place by hydraulic anchors to measure deformations in boreholes (over the gage length). Gage lengths from 0.5 to 100 meters are available. Specifications Standard Ranges¹ 25, 50, 100, 150,…
