Hanging pendulum and inverted hanging pendulum

The pendulum system is a precision instrument for measuring the inclination in, among other structures, dam bodies. The hanging pendulum is a weight-loaded wire hanging from a reference point at the top of the wire. The inverted hanging pendulum consists of a wire with one of its ends attached for example to the bottom of a borehole and the other attached to a float in a water-filled tank.

 

When the wire strives to be vertical, any horizontal displacements of the wire are registered manually or automatically with a reading instrument positioned along the wire.

 

In the case of fully-automatic measuring, measurement data can be collected automatically by our data loggers and presented online on the Internet in our web system, where alarms are received and access is given to measurement values that are presented in a clear and effective way.
