IDS-1 Pile Testing Device
- Measuring the pile length;
- Localizing pile defects (e.g. cross-section deformations and cracks);
- Might be used as a dual-channel high frequency seismic station;
- Might be used as a sonar.
Pile Length Measuring Method
The method is based on measuring the
response time for the signal reflected from the
other end of the pile or from obstacles inside
the pile that emerge due to its inhomogeneity. The length
is calculated based on the known speed of primary
wave for various types of piles and measured response
time. The source of primary waves is a special hammer;
the seismic pick up serves as a pick up of elastic
vibration.
The IDS-1 set includes:
- Electronic module;
- Seismic pick ups;
- Charger;
- Set of cables;
- Set of documentation;
- Transportation bag.

Software
Âuilt-in software allows for quick pile length measuring
and detection of pile defects.
Settings parameters allow for a wide variety of
measurements in various environments (piles of different
length, different types of soils, external disturbance).
The unit file system allows for recording, erasing and
viewing up to 2000 files with the measured data. Built-in
memory with capacity up to 128 MB.
External software compatible with Windows 98,
Windows 2000 and Windows XP allows for copying files
to PC, further data processing, and printing out reports.
Standard Ethernet and
RS-232 based interface to facilitate data exchange
with PC.
