SCSI Safe Curve Indicator
|
The safe driving speed for any
curve is quickly and accurately determined with the "SCSI" mounted in
the engineer's car. The scale reads zero when the car is level, and will show
"tilt" up to 25 degrees on each side. The scale is red beyond +/-10 degrees
to denote danger zones.
The "SCSI" was designed
by Slope-Meter in accordance with the specifications of the Minnesota Highway
Dept. Traffic Division and is used nation-wide by highway and traffic
engineers. Slope Meters are typically mounted on the dash in the operator's
view and will give fast, accurate readings for any slope. The Slope Meter
enables the operator to construct true slopes without waves. They also make is possible
to do night work just as accurately as in daylight. The hermetically sealed
Slope Meter is not affected by rain, dust, snow, or sleet.
