BKK-A
Surface-mounting Type Inclination Transducer

BKK-A

Summary

These transducers provide not only resolution twice as high as conventional systems but also outstandingly improved temperature characteristics and long-term stability.
The BKK-A series inclination transducers on surface of structure. available in two types, uniaxial and biaxial, are designed to measure minute inclination quantities. They are suitably used in combination with a structural settlement transducer for measurement of the disturbance resulting from nearby engineering works as well as for measurement of landslide-initiated inclination of the ground surface.
These transducers provide not only resolution twice as high as conventional systems but also outstandingly improved temperature characteristics (temperature effect on zero balance ±0.36 seconds/°C with ±1° rated capacity) and long-term stability (±0.5% RO). Furthermore, a stopper for detector protection is provided to ensure high handling efficiency in a total working flow from transportation to installation and measurement. Also, their structure, with highly viscous damping oil filled in, improves vibration resistance.

Features

●External stopper provided
●Improved vibration resistance
●Biaxial type available (BKK-A-D)
