PML Series Strain Gauges for Long Term Measurement of Concrete Structure

For measurement of internal strain of concrete/mortar, element sealed into acrylic resin backing for waterproofing (60, 120mm gauge length)


About the PML Series for Long Term Measurement of Concrete Structure

PM series mold strain gauge
These gauges are designed exclusively for the measurement of internal strain of concrete or mortar under loading test. These are embedded into the measurement position when the concrete or mortar is placed. The gauges have a construction of the sensing element sealed into the backing made of acrylic resin for waterproofing.
*For long-term period use, Strain Transducer KM should be applied.

Features PML Series

  • Type: For concrete and mortar use
  • Gauge resistance: 120Ω
  • Gauge length: 60, 120mm
