The setting cone clinometer is used to make sure that the setting cone is installed into the dam crest in a truly vertical position. It is furthermore used to measure the tilt angle of those setting cones with an accuracy smaller than 0.01 mm per 1 m. It is also possible to utilize the instrument’s technical characteristics to determine a horizon with an accuracy of 0.5”.

| Measuring range | ± 10 mm / 1 m | |
| Graduation | Coarse scale | 1 mm / 1 m ; 3.4' |
| Fine scale | 0.01 mm / 1 m ; 2" | |
| Weight | 1.8 kg |
The instrument is also available with a steel plate that can be put on even surfaces or guiding rails of machining centers, thus converting the clinometer into a striding level.
The tubular bubble level has an accuracy of 10” per 2mm bubble run. The accuracy is improved considerably thanks to the reading mechanism and the optical magnification, so that the tilt angle can be determined with an error of just about 2”.
The tilting range is ± 10 mm. The micrometer screw has a 1/100mm gradation, which corresponds to a change of inclination of 1 mm /1 m per one full revolution of the micrometer screw.
The instrument is delivered in an impact-resistant carrying case with foam padding.
Example of use
- monitoring of the deformation behavior of water dams
