Precision Inclinometers (Tilt Sensors)
Jewell force-balanced (servo) Precision Inclinometers are extremely sensitive, rugged transducers designed to provide horizontal angle or vertical deviation measurements with virtually infinite resolution. Every Jewell precision inclinometer responds to changes of slope as small as 0.1 second of arc, with a high-level DC output signal proportional to the sine of the angle of tilt from as little as ±1° full range to ±90° full range.

Model 802 DeepWater Submersible TiltmeterThe Model 802 DeepWater is the fully submersible cousin of our Model 801 Tuff Tilt. Performance features are the same, but the DeepWater housing is machined from a solid piece of 316 stainless steel and incorporates a high-pressure neoprene connector. Pressure rating is 250 bars (2500 meters depth). Higher-pressure versions may be special ordered. Temperature rating is governed by the neoprene connector. Wider temperature range is available with other connector types. DeepWater tiltmeters are excellent choices for monitoring dams, oil platforms, pipelines and underwater machinery. Specifications:

420 Datasheet Compare Tiltmeters
|
DeepWater 420DeepWater 420 is the submersible equivalent of our Tuff Tilt 420. It has 4-20 mA output and is current loop powered, so that tilt measurements can be made using a 2-wire pair. The massive housing is machined from a solid piece of 316 stainless steel and is rated to 250 bars pressure (2500 meters depth). Higher-pressure versions may be special ordered. The temperature rating is governed by the neoprene connector. Wider temperature range is available with other connector types. Use DeepWater 420 in the same places you would use Model 802, but where 4-20 mA output is required. Specifications:

DeepWater DigitalDeepWater Digital is the submersible version of our Tuff Tilt Digital tiltmeter. Performance and firmware are the same, but the 316 stainless steel housing is rated for submergence to 250 bars pressure (2500 meters depth). The neoprene connector is wet-mateable. DeepWater tiltmeters are excellent choices for offshore work and other underwater applications. Specifications:

Model 800P Portable Tiltmeter Compare Tiltmeters |
Model 800P Portable TiltmeterThe Model 800P Portable Tiltmeter is a versatile and accurate hand-held instrument for monitoring structural and foundation movement. Measurements are taken from tilt plates that have been cemented or bolted to any horizontal or vertical surface. Indexing bars on the bottom and sides of the tiltmeter enable you to reposition it on the tilt plate exactly, every time. Surveys are economical because only one tiltmeter is needed to make measurements at an unlimited number of points. When continuous monitoring is not required, Model 800P is an excellent choice. The Portable Tiltmeter System includes one tiltmeter, one power and display unit, and a tough plastic carrying case. Ceramic or Aluminum Tilt plates are purchased separately. Specifications:

Concrete Strain Gage Datasheet |
Dynamic Concrete Strain GageThis Dynamic Concrete Strain Gage (CSG) is a concrete embeddable strain gage designed for use in high frequency (dynamic) environments. These rugged, gages are ideal for infrastructure, and structural health monitoring applications with high levels of environmental noise. Our Dynamic CSGs use a Wheatstone bridge circuit, which compensates for temperature and lead resistance, and filter unwanted noise for precision strain measurements. Units are offered in either bending strain or axial strain configurations (please specify per order), and are easily implemented into conventional data acquisition systems. Jewell’s Dynamic CSGs are a perfect choice for measuring strains in pavement, columns, bridge components and other concrete structural components. Specifications:

Asphalt Strain Gage Datasheet |
Dynamic Asphalt Strain GageJewell Instruments offers a Dynamic Asphalt Strain Gage (ASG), an embeddable strain gage designed for use in high frequency (dynamic) environments. These rugged gages are built to withstand high temperatures and vibratory roller compaction, making them ideal for infrastructure and construction type projects. Our ASGs utilize a Wheatstone bridge circuit, which compensates for temperature and lead resistance, and filter unwanted noise for precision strain measurements. Units are offered in either bending strain or axial strain configurations (please specify per order). Our Dynamic ASGs are a perfect choice for measuring strains in asphalt pavement and for comprehensive infrastructure monitoring. Specifications:
