Crack Displacement Transducers

KG-A Crack Displacement Transducer
±2 mm/±5 mm CE

This displacement transducer is set across a crack on the surface of concrete or across a joint between two concrete blocks to measure the displacement of surface gaps. Its waterproof structure allows this transducer to make stable measurement outdoors over a long period of time. Mounts using an achor bolt (KGF-11) or mounting brackets (KGF-31).
Temperature-integrated model with built-in thermocouple also available.

Protection ratings : IP 65 equivalent

    Measurement moves in the plus direction with regard to an increase of the opening.

KG-B Crack Displacement Transducer X:-2 to +4 mm Y:±3 mm

The KG-B crack displacement transducer is used to measure the displacement in two directions simultaneously: the displacement of openings, such as concrete cracks or joints, and the horizontal shear displacement. It is mounted on a structure by bonding with adhesive. Because the fixing jigs are detachable, the transducer can be demounted and set on a different structure. This allows this transducer to be used repeatedly on different structures. In addition, the small-size feature makes this transducer suitable for indoor measurement.
