Under Water Anchor Load Sensor

Overview

The Under Water Anchor Load Sensor is designed to measure the load acting on
anchored platforms, including structures that function as wave suppressors.
The sensor can be installed in series with anchor chains to monitor the load
acting on the anchored structure.

The system records load data in real time and is suitable for experimental
studies involving underwater anchored structures and wave suppression systems.
The sensors are designed for continuous operation in different types of water.

• Experimental wave studies

Measurement Principle

The sensors are attached in series to the anchor chains of the underwater
structure. The load acting on the anchored platform is transmitted through
the anchor chain, allowing the sensor to record the load data in real time.

Load Measurement

The sensor is intended to measure the load developed on anchored platforms
and related underwater structures. Different sensor load ranges can be selected
according to the requirements of the experimental setup.

Real-Time Recording

The sensors can record load data in real time. Multiple sensors can be
incorporated into an underwater anchor load measurement arrangement to study
the load acting on anchored structures.

Underwater Operation

The sensor is designed for continuous underwater operation and can remain
in different types of water. Its construction uses high density plastic and
stainless steel materials.

Cable Configuration

• Standard Cable Length: 15 metres
• Extension: Provision for further extension
