A new gauge has been added to the product range of the Saugnac Gauges company: the E1 gauge. This is a digital readout gauge with a resolution of 0,01mm for monitoring cracks both on 1 axis (gap) and on 2 axes (gap + shear).
This gauge is removable: the principle consists of fixing 1 pair of 2 transparent plates on either side of the crack for monitoring on 1 axis. For tracking on 2 axes, you will need to attach 1 triplet of 3 plates. Then the gauge is positioned in the plates to take the reading.
Its unique fixing system allows you to simply clip the gauge into the plates to take the reading and then remove it. Once the measurement has been carried out, only the transparent plates remain on the support.
The plates are barely visible and compact (33mm in diameter and 9mm thick) and made from quality material (PA12) to guarantee great resistance to bad weather.
Furthermore, each pair / triplet of plates is provided with a unique QR code / identifier which allows all measurement tracking to be carried out directly in the Saugnac application. This application is provided free of charge with the purchase of Saugnac products and allows you to associate all measurements with a set of plates. Thus the traceability and security of data is ensured thanks to the application. This application also provides ambient temperature and humidity data using geolocation.
This gauge is supplied in a quality suitcase for easy transport with:
- a carbon standard to take the zero before the measurement. The standard is measured with a value indicated on the body of the standard so that the values can be compared in the event of a change.
- a 1-axis installation template
- a 2-axis installation template
- 5 pairs of P1E1 plates with screws allowing you to follow 5 cracks on 1 axis
- a detailed notice
It is then possible to purchase refills sold in 5 pairs or 5 triplets depending on need. You can find all the information on the E1 gauge product page.
