SPECTROTILT™

RS232 / 12 bit Electronic Inclinometer

The SPECTROTILT™ RS232 / 12 bit Electronic Inclinometer offers unparalleled accuracy and value. By combining a single axis / hybrid electrolytic tilt sensor, with custom digital electronics and software, Spectron has successfully spanned the gap between cost and performance. Features include a +/-60 degree linear sensing range, on-board linearity and temperature correction, ESD and EMI protection, aluminum housing, all in a hermetically sealed package.

The angular range, scale factor/resolution, and number of readings internally averaged (ie: filtering), can all be custom tailored to satisfy most applications. The viscosity of the fluid inside the sensing element can also be altered, to decrease susceptibility in high vibration environments. In addition, the digital output signal is ideal for long cable runs, eliminating concerns over signal loss and noise.

Applications

  • Construction Equipment (Boom Angle, Safe Load Indicators)

  • Road Graders and Pavers (Blade Angle)

  • Wheel Alignment (Caster and Chamber measurement)

  • Antenna Position (Satellite Dish Elevation Angle)
