RESENSYS SenSpot™ Inclination/Tilt Ultra Low Power Precision Sensing & Wireless Communication Typical Applications ■ Bridge health monitoring ■ General structural integrity monitoring (buildings, dams, tunnels, etc.) Benefits ■ Long lifetime (minimum expected life without battery replacement 10 years) ■ Power source: replaceable lithium-ion battery ■ Wireless communication (IEEE 802.15.4) 9 Lightweight, about 120 gr ■ Easy mounting o Self-adhesive, no drilling is required (e.g. steel) o Flange-mount, drilling is required (e.g. concrete) 9 Quick installation, 1-2 minutes 9 Adjustable sampling interval 9 Resolution, 0.01 degrees (0.1 degrees repeatability) 9 Working temperature: -40 to +150°F (-40 to +65°C) ■ Long communication range: 0.62mi (1.0Km) free space 9 Small size: 1.96" x 1.96" x 1.34" ■ Ingress Protection: IP65 Description SenSpot™ provides an easy to install, scalable solution for distributed structural integrity monitoring. SenSpot™ inclination/tilt uses Resensys's proprietary Active RF Technology. Resensys ART technology offers a high performance method for SenSpot™ Inclination/Tilt large-scale sensing, wireless synchronization, and ultra-energy efficient wireless communication. SenSpot™ is designed to operate maintenance-free for more than a decade. After installation, Sen-Spot™ does not need calibration, battery replacement, or any other maintenance for at least 10 years. Due to small size and lightweight, adhesive-mount SenSpot™ sensors can be applied easily to as many critical spots on a structure as needed, with minimal installation effort. As a part of the Resensys solution for integrity monitoring system, SenSpot™ inclination/tilt can be used to monitor smallest movements of structural components such as piers, decks, bearings on a highway bridge. In addition, SenSpot™ inclination/tilt monitors changes in these parameters as the structure expands or contracts as a result of temperature variations. In addition to bridges, SenSpot™ inclination/tilt can be used in a variety of other structures. Examples include buildings, dams, etc.

Tilt SenSpot Tilt SenSpot comes in either self-adhesive or flange-mount form factors. The attachment of flange-mount SenSpot is done using four bolts. This option is mostly used for installation on concrete structure. The picture below shows a diagram for such a unit. All dimensions are in mm (inch). In order to install the SenSpot on metal surfaces, a piece plexi sheet is used as an intermediate. The SenSpot is screwed to the plexi sheet which provides a smooth surface for metal attachment using a double sided adhesive.
