Detect ground movement with a Lily tiltmeter
Featured Product from Jewell Instruments, LLC
The LILY borehole tiltmeter has been developed for volcanic and tectonic research, ocean bottom applications, and for the monitoring of hydraulic fracturing and other subsurface processes in the mining and petroleum industries.
LILY ‘s high-pressure stainless steel housing is rated for submergence to depths of 3500 meters and you can attain even greater depths by switching to a titanium housing. The tilt sensors in LILY can self-level on command through a range of ±10 degrees and have 5 nanoradians resolution over a dynamic range of ±330 microradians. The self-leveling feature keeps LILY on scale indefinitely at the high gains required for geophysical work. Its versatile RS232 and RS422 serial outputs, and powerful firmware command set give you a wide range of measurement and recording options. Data can be stored internally for periodic downloading, or streamed to your external network or recorder. GPS compatible output formats are included.
