Photovoltaic flexion meter

Photovoltaic flexion meter.The purpose of the photovoltaic flexion meter is to determine the bending in the crank shafts of a reciprocating machine by applying the principle of measurement based on a photovoltaic angular deviation sensor operating with diffused light. It is characterised in performing the flexion sensor function in crankshafts based on the use of diffuse reflected light which produces a photovoltaic signal. The method of generating the photovoltaic signal consists of a differential EMF generated between two photovoltaic cells which is captured by a computerised data acquisition and processing system.
