Ground Extension Gauge KLG-B Ground Extension Gauge / NKLG-BB TML-NET type Ground Extension Gauge

KLG-B Ground Extension Gauge
NKLG-BB TML-NET type Ground Extension Gauge 100 mm

The KLG-B ground extension gauge is placed near the ground surface to measure the displacement of a ground slide. A superInvar wire is set between a stanchion at a reference point (fixed stanchion) and a stanchion at a measurement position (mobile stanchion) and this gauge is mounted on the stanchion at the reference point. The waterproof and environmental resistance features make this gauge suitable for on-site measurement work. The NKLG-BB model is designed specifically for use with the network measurement system TML-NET.

Surge Absorber Terminal

Surge absorber terminal SAT

These are terminals with built-in gas tube arresters for connecting transducers and instruments. The gas tube arrestor is a surge absorbing element to protect the connected device from surge voltage in the cable which is caused by induced lightning. Since the terminals are equipped with DIN rails, they can easily be installed in an instrumentation box and increased. Connecting works can be done easily and efficiently.

Surge absorber terminal SAT

FBG Strain Gauge

FBG Strain Gauge OFSG-10A/OFSG-10B

These are strain gauges utilizing a FBG (Fiber Bragg Grating) optical fiber sensor. Taking advantages of the FBG sensor, the FBG strain gauge is applicable to the conditions to which conventional strain gauges cannot meet. They are most suited to strain measurement in the vicinity of a motor or transformer which may cause electrical noise, and also suited to strain measurement in petrochemical, natural gas or chemical plant or in hydrogen environment where explosion protection is required.

  • Not influenced by electromagnetic noise
  • Connection of two or more gauges possible for both-end connector type OFSG-10B

Measurement principle

The wavelength of the light reflected by FBG varies depending on the strain and temperature. When the FBG is mounted on a measurement object, not only the strain generated on the object but also an apparent strain caused by the temperature change is measured. Therefore, appropriate temperature compensation is required when the temperature change is significant. The FBG strain gauge OFSG-10A/OFSG-10B is composed of two FBG sensors, one of which is for strain measurement and another is for temperature compensation. These two sensors have different center wavelength respectively. It is constructed that the sensor for temperature compensation is not influenced by the strain generated on the measurement object. Owing to this construction, apparent strain component caused by temperature change is correctly measured and rejected, and the strain generated on the object can be measured in excellent precision.
