Bestech is a specialist in strain gauges, and can supply strain gauges for various purposes and any environment; a strain gauge would typically be used for stress analysis in mine shafts.

Inclinometers can be used for measurement of vibration and any angles of tilt; inclinometers can signal rock shifts and movements in the surrounding earth.

Accelerometers with large shock and vibration capacities are also used to measure vibrations in mines.

Pressure transducers are used to measure drafts in the mine; Bestech can also offer handheld manometers with excellent accuracy.

Load cells can be used for any weighing or force measurements and draw wire sensors can be used as a contact method of measuring displacement; in addition, Bestech offers a variety of submersible measuring equipment, including submersible LVDTs.
