EGS – Portable Electronic Telependulum

Edit

Per il controllo delle dighe si è fatto sempre più uso di pendoli e collimazioni a filo teso. Questi sistemi di controllo hanno permesso di rendere le misure semplici e immediate, dando l’opportunità di affidare l’esecuzione delle misure direttamente al personale di guardia.

Da queste esigenze è scaturita la ricerca, realizzazione e messa a punto, del coordinometro manuale EGS, che risponde compiutamente agli scopi prefissati.

Lo strumento è realizzato in due versioni per usi diversi:

  • EGS – 2C per misure ai fili dei pendoli
  • EGS – FT per misure a filo teso

Le versioni, differenziate sostanzialmente nel modulo ottico/meccanico, utilizzano la stessa elettronica adeguatamente configurata.

Lo strumento EGS-2C, portatile, ad azionamento manuale, è in grado di fornire, con una sola posizione di stazione, la misura delle due coordinate planimetriche del filo rispetto  alla postazione solidale al manufatto da controllare.

Lo strumento EGS-FT, portatile, ad azionamento manuale, è in grado di fornire la posizione del filo teso orizzontalmente, rispetto alla postazione solidale del manufatto da controllare.

L’esecuzione della misura risulta semplice e assolutamente oggettiva in quanto all’operatore non è richiesta nessuna valutazione ma solo l’utilizzo corretto dello strumento.

Applications

The EGS-2C coordinatometer is an excellent instrument for the measurement of the wire movements of a pendulum, both straight or reverse.
Generally used where the use of pendulums is possible, in particular major applications are:

  • Dams
  • Historical buildings and monuments
  • Civil construction
  • Vertical supporting works
  • Towers
  • Minarets
  • Skyscrapers

Features and Benefits

  • Great accuracy
  • Portability
  • Easy to use
  • Objectivity of measurement
  • Reduction of errors linked to the execution of taking measurements
  • High long-term repeatability
  • Maximum reliability
  • Long Life of the system lifetime
  • Minimal wear and tear
  • Low maintenance required
  • Integrated functions of self-diagnosis and testing

Measuring Principle

The read control unit is composed of a lower support base, beneath which are located three spherical centering feet for positioning the instrument on its base. On the upper part is a cart which carries the two optoelectronic pairs (arranged in an orthogonal and a 45 ° to the axis of advancement of the cart).
The operating knob is fixed to the rear of the cart, this allows the movement of the cart and the execution of measurement. The FT version is equipped with a single optoelectronics pair arranged vertically to the instrument.
The cart is operated by turning the rear knob to move an endless screw coupled to a special device for the reduction of mechanical backlash between the screw and the cart itself. The cart is also guided by a lateral axis along which it slides with Bushing type ball bearings.
The support of the advancement screw is constructed radially on bushings and axially with thrust bearings.
