UNDER ROAD 'PIPE' MONITORING SOLUTIONS

1st June 2007

Active Sensors was recently approached by an environmental engineering consultancy looking to source a robust sprung loaded displacement sensor to accurately measure the deflection of a pipe carrying electrical cables under the surface of a busy commuter road. The pipe, which is installed just beneath the road surface, would have 23 of the CLS1323 sprung loaded 75mm stroke sensors positioned along its 30m length. Once the pipe and sensors are in situ beneath the road, accessing the installation would be impossible, so a sensing solution that offered total reliability was essential. Active Sensors popular CLS1323-75mm sprung loaded sensor technology was chosen because of its robust design, accurate measuring capability and it’s proven environmental performance.
