Pile Installation Recorder
For closed end diesel hammers, a popular accessory is a pressure transducer to measure bounce chamber pressure. The main unit display shows important results for each blow. It automatically performs all the duties of a pile inspector: the need for marking the piles and counting blows is eliminated. The PIR-D accepts driving criteria as an input, and automatically checks if it is being met. The equipment is totally operated through the touch screen display of the main unit. An installation log is printed by a small field printer installed in the crane cabin. The main unit stores installation data in a removable PCMCIA memory card.
