Sensors Measure Machine Tilt

Aug. 5, 2009
Inclination sensors are designed to detect and measure the incline or tilt angle of machine elements or equipment platforms in single- or dual-axis applications, from 0° to 360° with accuracy of ± 0.5°. 
The cCSAus-certified sensors feature metal mounting brackets, an outdoor IP68/69k rating and 4-20mA or 0-5VDC analog outputs that can represent the user-configured angle range. The sensors feature a power supply range of 10VDC to 30VDC, two adjustable switching outputs and provide reliable operation in temperatures ranging from -25°C to 85°C. Pushbutton configuration allows users to scale the output range and define the limit points, and tilt direction has independent calibration for increasing analog output for either clockwise or counter-clockwise tilt direction.Pepperl+Fuchs Inc.www.pepperl-fuchs.com330.486.0001
