Connect sensorized segments in the field for a continuous deformation profile.
Learn MoreSAAV Extend will always have a sensorized length that is right for your needs. Individual sensor segments are 500 mm each, and can be combined up to a total sensorized length of 200 m.
SAAV Extend's hand-tight threaded connectors allow clients to easily add sections of lift extension segments without additional tools. Adding new lift extension segments is as simple as twisting, while keyed alignment marks on the connectors maintain the ShapeArray’s azimuth.
Designed specifically for the rigors of tailings dam safety monitoring, SAAV Extend is submersible up to a depth of 200 m. SAAV Extend has the same 38-year MTTF as any ShapeArray that Measurand manufactures. It also has the same temperature tolerances and tensile strength, so clients can trust SAAV Extend in as wide a range of environments as existing SAAV models.
You cannot guarantee pristine conditions in the field when you need to perform your ShapeArray installation. That’s why SAAV Extend's connectors have a 300-psi open-face pressure rating. You can connect segments in the rain without worrying about damaging your instruments.
Clients can use silent segments first introduced with SAAV, in addition to SAAV Extend's lift extension segments to target the total sensorized length towards the geologic zone of interest
SAAV Extend's patented cyclical installation system enables a stable fit into either new or distorted casings.

SAAV Extend Top Assembly
The top assembly is the brain of the SAAV Extend that locks the instrument into standard inclinometer casing with Measurand’s patented cyclical installation method.
SAAV Extend Base Array
The base array refers to the sensorized segments at the bottom of the borehole after the initial installation.
SAAV Extend Lift Extension Segments
Lift extension segments added between the top assembly and base array connect to form the SAAV Extend’s total sensorized length.
