Strain Gauges
Vibrating Wire Embedded Strain Gauge
The VW Embedded Strain Gauge is designed for measuring strain in concrete, rock, or soil, providing critical data for assessing structural integrity and performance. Utilizing VW technology, the embedded strain gauge delivers high precision, accurate and stable strain readings with minimal drift over time. The gauge is embedded directly into concrete, rock, or soil, allowing it to accurately measure the strain of the surrounding material as it deforms under load.

|---|---|
| Accuracy: | ±0.1% of full scale |
| Resolution: | 1 micro strain |
| Material: | Stainless steel |
| Temperature Range: | -20°C to +80°C |
Vibrating Wire Arc Weldable Strain Gauge
This gauge is particularly suitable for applications where it is impractical or impossible to use embedded strain gauges, such as on steel structures, tunnels, bridges, and other civil engineering projects. The device offers precise, stable, and durable performance under harsh environmental conditions.
| Measurement Range: | ±3000 μ (microstrain) |
|---|---|
| Resolution: | 0.1 μ |
| Gauge Length: | 150 mm (customizable) |
| Temperature Range: | -20°C to +80°C |
Dynamic Strain Gauge
The Dynamic Strain Gauge is engineered for the precise measurement of rapidly changing strain in various structural and mechanical components. Ideal for high-frequency applications, this gauge is used in environments where accurate monitoring of dynamic loads and stress cycles is crucial.
| Measurement Range: | ±3500 μ (microstrain) |
|---|---|
| Type: | Weldable foil type / Installation using adhesives |
| Frequency Response: | Up to 5 kHz |
Rebar Strain Gauge
Rebar Strain Gauges are specialized sensors designed to measure the strain in reinforcing bars (rebar) embedded within concrete structures. These gauges are essential for assessing the internal stress and strain behavior of concrete members.
| Material: | Stainless Steel or Alloy (Sensor body) |
|---|---|
| Measurement Range: | Up to 2500 μ (Microstrain) |
| Accuracy: | 1 μ |
