TrueTILT? Mid-Range Single Axis, Linear Output, Electrolytic Tilt Sensor

Product catalog summary

Operating Specifications
The TrueTILT™ single axis, mid-range electrolytic tilt sensor operates within a range of ±25° and has a linear range of ±10°. It measures one axis with a linearity of ≤1.0% and repeatability of ≤18 arc seconds. The resolution is ≤1 arc second, with a null offset of ≤1° and roll sensitivity of 0.03% per degree. It maintains long-term stability/drift of ≤0.01° and has a null temperature offset of ≤6 arc seconds per °C. The operating temperature range is -40° to +85° C, and storage temperature is -50° to +100° C. The sensor has a null impedance of 50 K Ohms and a time constant of ≤1 second.

Physical Characteristics
The sensor measures 40.6 mm in length, 7.6 mm in width, and 14.2 mm in height, with a weight of 5.8 g. It features a hole center of 34 mm and a hole diameter of 3.7 mm.

Benefits
Key benefits include very low power consumption, long life, minimal drift compared to MEMS devices, excellent resolution and repeatability, and superior performance in extreme environments. It is manufactured in the USA.

Description

TrueTilt™ Single Axis Mid-Range Electrolytic Tilt Sensor Dimensional Drawings When using an excitation circuit not designed by The Fredericks Company, ensure that no direct current is passed through the sensor. Direct current will lead to sensor damage, output drift, and general The 0703-1602-99 and all sensors in the TrueTilt™ series must be mounted horizontally (parallel to the surface of the earth and perpendicular to the force of gravity). For best performance, isolate the sensor from vibrations when mounting it. Further information on sensor basics is provided on The Fredericks Company website...
