Civil Engineering Sensor (Transducer)

Since we first began producing Carlson-type transducers in Japan for use as civil engineering measurement gages, Kyowa has continued to design and manufacture measuring instruments used for the management, maintenance, design, and research of large-scale civil engineering structures in Japan and abroad. Many of our products can now be found in such projects all over the world. Many of our civil engineering sensors (transducers) are used to convert earth pressure and water pressure through a strain gage into voltage for measurement. These use self-temperature-compensation strain gages, allowing for stable measurement with little drift, even for temperature changes. We also have civil engineering sensors (transducers) with temperature measuring functions that allow physical quantities such as strain, stress, and displacement to be measured with a single device.
