TrueTilt™ Single Axis Narrow Range Electrolytic Tilt Sensor

Product catalog summary

Operating Specifications
The TrueTilt™ Single Axis Narrow Range Electrolytic Tilt Sensor (Part Number: 0703-0711-99) operates within a range of ±3° with a linear range of ±1°. It measures one axis with a linearity of ≤3% and repeatability of ≤0.001°. The resolution is ≤0.0003°, and it has a null offset of ≤0.25°. The sensor maintains long-term stability/drift of ≤0.001° and operates between -20 °C to 50 °C, with storage temperatures ranging from -55 °C to 125 °C. It has a null impedance of 50 kΩ and a time constant of ≤1 s. The sensor is made from magnetic metals and can handle a maximum current at null of 0.2 mA continuously.

Physical Characteristics
The sensor measures 41 mm in length, 8 mm in width, and 9 mm in height, with a hole center of 34 mm and a hole diameter of 3.7 mm. The lead spacing is 10 mm, lead diameter is 0.5 mm, and lead length is 5 mm. It weighs 4 grams.

Benefits
The sensor offers high resolution and accuracy, long life, minimal drift compared to MEMS devices, superior performance in industrial applications, and excellent customer support. It is manufactured in the USA.

Description
The 0703-0711-99 TrueTilt™ sensor is a robust, economical tilt sensor suitable for various applications, including laser leveling, construction machinery, railway monitoring, mobile satellite positioning, and geotechnical monitoring. It is a passive sensor requiring signal conditioning electronics for output.

Certifications and Ratings
The sensor is RoHS compliant.

Notes
When using an excitation circuit not designed by The Fredericks Company, ensure no direct current passes through the sensor to avoid damage and instability. The sensor should be mounted horizontally and isolated from vibrations for optimal performance.

Related Products
Compatible signal conditioners include models with SPI, RS-232, Analog/PWM, RS-485, and Analog/RS-232 interfaces.
