Crack Sensor

The Crack Sensor Node interfaces to a linear displacement sensor.

Its high precision sampling circuit powers the sensor and reports its measurements through Senceive’s wireless communications network to a Gateway. It has been successfully used in many applications, including those measuring:

• Crack movement
• Pile separation
• Structural movement
• Expansion joint monitoring

Key benefits

• Waterproof, robust connectors for simple installation
• Automatic sensor type detection
• Extremely low noise performance
• 16-bit resolution (65,536 steps over the full scale)
• Integrated long life battery
• 12-15 years’ battery life, including when acting as a relay node within the mesh communications network
• Integrated temperature sensor
• One and two channel variants readily available, up to six channels available on request
• Waterproof to IP66 / IP67 / IP68
• Firmware is remotely upgradeable over the air via the gateway reducing costly site visits
• Variety of fixings available for easy installation on site
