The dGMM is designed to measure ground movement, and its flexible shaft can accomodate eccentric loading or shear. It can be configured as a crack monitor or can be used for structural monitoring of shafts, headframes or barricades or as a closure station.
The dGMM, is a magnetostrictive displacement sensor with a resolution of 0.01mm and a range of 145 – 290mm. The sensors are completely sealed against the environment and are temperature controlled. It has an on-board microcontroller running YieldPoint’s proprietary d-Tech signal processing and transmission technology, to provide a high precision single point displacement sensor.
