Digital Horizontal Inclinometer System
The Digital Horizontal Inclinometer System measures settlement or heave under embankments, dams, roadways, storage tanks, and landfills.
Overview
The Digital Horizontal Inclinometer System measures settlement or heave under embankments, dams, roadways, storage tanks, and landfills.
Essentially being a horizontal version of the RST Digital Inclinometer System (separate brochure), settlement profile surveys are conducted by running the probe in an inclinometer casing installed horizontally rather than vertically. Wireless communication between the inclinometer control cable and the Rugged Handheld Device ensures ease of use and reliability.

Speak with an Expert
I’m very happy with the quality of the instrumentation and technical support from RST, as always. They worked with us from the initial stages of the project to ensure that we were fully prepared and equipped to use the RSTAR network for the first time. They delivered everything within the tight project time frame to ensure that there were no delays on site, and the submersible tilt meters looked like new even after over twelve months of being submerged in Thames water!
