IPI In-Place Inclinometers

IPI (In-Place Inclinometer) is a type of inclinometer system used in geotechnical monitoring when a high frequency of inclinometer tube readings and automatic data acquisition is required. IPI probes are specifically designed to measure lateral displacement or deformation of soil or rock masses in various geotechnical applications. IPI systems are composed by a string of […]

B.R.A.IN MEMS-sonden-neigungsmesser

The BRAIN inclinometer system is a device used to measure the displacement in ground or under structures. It is particularly useful in assessing the stability of slopes, embankments, retaining walls, and other structures that are susceptible to movements or deformations. By measuring the change in inclination over time, inclinometers provide valuable data for analysing the […]

Sakhalin-2 project Russia

The Sakhalin II project is an oil and gas development project on Sakhalin Island and immediately offshore, in the Sea of Okhotsk, from two fields: Piltun-Astokhskoye and Lunskoye. Piltun-Astokhskoye is primarily an oil field, and Lunskoye is primarily a gas field. The project has been met with heavy criticism over the potential environmental impact, which […]

FAQ#118 – Is it possible to use the reference reading (zero reading) taken with a digital inclinometer probe as a reference reading for another digital inclinometer probe?

No, this is not possible.Sisgeo calibrates each probe individually, but each probe has its own small different properties, that have a certain influence on the readings. The international standard ISO 18674-3, describing the reference reading, states that:„It is good practice to take an additional reference measurement with an independent probe that can be used as […]

FAQ#117 – WHY CANT I CONNECT MY ANDROID DEVICE TO B.R.A.IN INCLINOMETER SYSTEM?

Preliminary verifications: • B.R.A.IN reel’s battery is charged• Your mobile or tablet has the following minimum features:          Bluetooth Low Energy BLE 4.2 or higher          Android OS 7 or higher If the preliminary verification is positive, please proceed as follows:• Un-install the B.R.A.IN app from your device (if […]

FAQ#116 – How do I configure a WR-Log digital node to read RS485 Sisgeo TIMED sensors?

Sisgeo digital instruments can operate in two powering modes: TIMED or ALWAYS-ON (for more information see F.A.Q.#094).A string of mixed instruments consisting of TIMED gauges and ALWAYS-ON gauges cannot work.The first thing to do is therefore to check that ALL connected instruments in your array are set to TIMED mode.You can check the powering mode […]

FAQ#115 – What is the best power supply for the OMNIAlog logger used to manage the FLX-Rail system?

The OMNIAlog logger for FLX-Rail has a fairly high power consumption due to the router.If OMNIAlog is set to send data through the router after each acquisition (so every 5 minutes) it needs to be powered from the network (e.g. 220Vac)If OMNIAlog is set to send data through the router once a day, it can […]

FAQ#113 – Why I’m not able to connect my mobile/tablet to MIND readout?

Verify that the mobile phone/tablet used does have the minimum required features:Bluetooth Low Energy BLE 4.2APPLE iOS 14 or higherAndroid OS 9 (suggested Android OS 10 or higher) Then please check that the mobile phone/tablet has Bluetooth on and that the MIND unit has a sufficiently charged battery.
