Edit

The Real-Time Tilt Viewer is an intuitive monitoring system that enables real-time visualization of a structure’s tilt variations, with a data acquisition rate of 8 measurements per second. It also provides a live graphical representation of the data in progress.

Developed with dedicated, custom-designed software, the system allows users to track structural
movements in both graphical and numerical formats. Sensor data can be displayed as raw values or as processed (engineered) values, offering flexibility for different monitoring needs.

This solution is particularly well-suited for the real- time monitoring of structures such as bell towers, bridges, buildings, piles, and diaphragm walls especially during testing or under specific conditions. It can also be applied to monitor inclination and torsion in moving objects, such as ships or large
machinery, either during transit or during critical load or stability tests.

Features and Benefits

The system, easy to apply and use, allows real-time monitoring of the structure to which it is applied during work phases in areas that may affect the structure itself. This gives the operator the possibility to intervene promptly in the event of abnormal data or data outside the expected project parameters.
As for the application of the system on moving machinery, it allows verification of whether the maximum expected inclinations remain within safety parameters.
The versatility of the system enables many other applications where real-time and continuous monitoring of inclination variation is required.

The system consists of:

  1. No. “x” bi-axial digital MEMS inclinometers (up to a maximum of xxx units)
  2. No. “x” standard (or custom upon request) support plates for inclinometric sensors
  3. Connection cable for inclinometric sensors
  4. Conversion unit with rechargeable battery
  5. Power supply for the conversion unit
  6. PC/conversion unit connection cable
  7. “Real Time Tilt Viewer” Software License
  8. PC (Optional)

Measurement Principle

The inclinometer is made up of two mono-axial MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical-System) sensors. The sensor’s sensitivity, long-term reliability, and robustness make this device an excellent, low-cost tool for monitoring systems intended to check structural deformations or, more generally, rotations and inclination variations. These sensors, with RS485 (MODBUS) output, allow easy interfacing with our CUM3000 Data Logger and with various other reading and acquisition systems currently available on the national and international market. Each sensor will have a label indicating the direction of the two inclinations and the pre-set ModBus channel, to be identified by the software.
