APPLICATIONS
The RSS-X series of acousto elastic sensors is used to measure variations in compressive stress and load, which allows stress evaluation when the material’s modulus of elasticity is unknown or anisotropic and inhomogeneous. Typical examples are concretes and drill holes in the rocks, where these instruments can be used include:

• Mining
• Tunnel supports
• Deformations of pillars
• Dams and nuclear power plants
• Structural members of buildings and bridges
• Piles and caissons
• Movements and landslides

DESCRIPTION
The sensor detects the compression of a metal body. This metal body is 2 components resin and protected housing. The housing is arranged in concrete or in the iron braid of reinforcement.
The compression are measured with ultrasonic pulse-echo method. In the case of concrete tension sensor, an ultrasonic sensor is included.
The RSS-X is offered in two models, RSS-X and RSS-2X, that differ in their measured axis.
