ABOUT

INCLINOMETERS

An inclinometer system includes inclinometer casing, a traversing

probe, control cable, and tablet.

Inclinometer casing is permanently installed in a near-vertical borehole

that passes through a zone of suspected movement. The probe, cable,

and tablet are used to survey the casing.

The first survey establishes the baseline profile of the installed casing.

Subsequent surveys will reveal changes in the profile if ground

movement has occurred. Plotting these changes reveals the rate, depth,

and magnitude of ground movement.

SYSTEM

COMPONENTS

The Digital Inclinometer Pro system includes an inclinometer probe,

Cable, a Bluetooth reel, a cable gate, and an In-Port Pro app that runs on

the supplied Tablet.
