Phase IV Engineering has introduced a new line of small, strain gauge sensor modules that use break-through technology-including the Internet of Things (IoT) and full system wireless integration. The modules create a new "daisy chain" sensor array to quickly and easily monitor multiple points along structural components such as I-beams, girders, hanging structures, support columns, and railways, as well as industrial applications such as rotating shafts in engines, turbine, and other structures. Scott Dalgleish, CEO of Phase IV, says that by using this new Leap sensors system, structural engineers can string multiple small strain gauge sensor modules to one wireless Leap transceiver node. Anywhere from two to 30 strain gauge modules can be added to the bus. And, in turn, each CAN strain module can support two full-bridge resistive strain gauge sensors, for a total of up to 60 strain gauges per transceiver node. |
