GTI-E210-S Pad-Type Soil Pressure Transducer (500 & 1000 kPa)

Download a product overview for KYOWA Civil Engineering & Construction Sensors.

By installing the pressure sensing surface along the curvature of a segment in the shield driving method, the GTI-E210-S series enables accurate measurement of average soil pressure applied to a wide area of a segment or back-filling.

Features:

• For Pressure Measurement
• Rated Capacity: 500 kPa & 1 MPa
• Large-sized pressure-sensing surface enables detection of average soil pressure.
• Sensor can be installed without any loss of the section of the segment itself due to blocking.
• Smooth segment surface after installation does not affect soil pressure distribution.
• Can be installed independent of the type of segment or engineering process.
• Can be installed even to a surface having a curvature. (For the limit of the curvature, contact us.)

To Ensure Safe Usage:

• The pad is made of thin metal. Do not strike it against any sharp or angular material.
• Mounting fixture is required to fix the transducer.

The GTI-E210-S series was developed jointly with the Geo-Research Institute.
