Bedrock Displacement Transducer

Bedrock Displacement Transducer KLB-B 100mm (-20 to +80mm) 

The KLB-B bedrock displacement transducer measures the amount of displacement between the mounting surface and a measuring point in bedrock. 
The KLB-B consists of a bedrock displacement transducer KLB-B, a hydraulic anchor (KLF-11/12), and a connecting rod (KLF-21). The KLB-B is equipped with up to 8 displacement transducers, so that 8 hydraulic anchors can be fixed in one borehole (φ66 mm or more for 1 to 6 points, φ86 mm or more for 7 or 8 points) for measurement. The amount of displacement between the displacement transducer and anchor is detected as relative displacement through the rod. 
The anchors are anchored to the bedrock by applying water pressure to the anchors at predetermined measuring points in the borehole using a pump from the ground.
