8800 · 8900 Series Tilt Loggers

The 8800 and 8900 Series Mesh Tilt Loggers combine the capabilities of a biaxial tiltmeter with a wireless GeoNet Mesh Logger. The self-contained tilt loggers are attached to various structures including dams, embankments, foundation walls, retaining walls, buildings, etc., and provide wireless measurement of any tilting that may occur. Remote access of sensor data is achieved via the Cellular Gateway,¹ which controls the mesh network and collects sensor data from any tilt loggers deployed. A Local Gateway, without cellular capabilities or cloud integration, provides the same control over the network to allow secure, localized access to your sensor data.

Seamless and secure cloud integration is achieved with GEOKON OpenAPI. The GEOKON OpenAPI portal is easy-to-use and allows users to activate loggers, change settings, configure sensor channels, and view current logger status. Industry leading data visualization software, or the no-cost GEOKON Agent Software, can be used with GEOKON OpenAPI for data viewing and reporting.

In addition, Solar Panels of various wattages are available for use with these Tilt Loggers.
