The Model 6140 Vertical In-Place Inclinometer (IPI) String consists of a string of Biaxial MEMS tilt sensors, installed in rugged engineered polymer housings. One spring-loaded wheel and two fixed wheels allow the string to positively engage the grooves of conventional inclinometer casing, maintaining azimuth with depth. The entire string is held in tension by attaching a suspension weight to the bottommost sensor and hanging the string from the top of the casing, using a suspension cable and support bracket.

Sensors in the inclinometer string are mechanically connected with high-strength aircraft cable assemblies, which are free to pivot about the connection point. Sensors are electrically connected via a common bus cable, while the top-most sensor includes a waterproof connector that allows for easy assembly to the chosen readout device (PC, datalogger, SCADA system, etc.) through a customer-specified readout cable.

Up to 500 sensors may be connected to a single Model 6140 IPI String. A single string that exceeds 50 sensors will become increasingly heavy as additional sensors are added, which may affect the ease of installation. The Model 6140-HOIST provides a sturdy frame, pulley system, support cable, and cable reel to help facilitate the installation or removal of longer strings. GEOKON strongly recommends the use of the Model 6140-HOIST for strings that exceed 100 sensors.

Each sensor outputs calibrated tilt (angular degrees) and temperature (degree Celsius) readings, which can be easily imported into MS Excel, or any inclinometer visualization software, without the need to convert raw data into engineering units.

The Model 6140 Vertical IPI String uses the industry standard Modbus® Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) protocol to communicate. Automated monitoring is accomplished using GeoNet Digital High-Power Loggers, 8600 Series Dataloggers, Campbell Scientific Dataloggers or any other device capable of being a Modbus RTU client and having an RS-485 port. The Model 8020-38 Addressable Bus Converter provides the means to interface the Model 6140 with a variety of systems, including personal computers, programmable logic controllers and dataloggers.
