Product catalog summary
Overview: The Model A701-2 Platform Mount Tiltmeter by Jewell Instruments is designed for high precision tilt measurements. It features built-in invar leveling legs for easy installation on horizontal surfaces and includes switchable gains and low-pass filter settings. The device uses an absolute gravity-referenced electrolytic sensor, offering ultra-high sensitivity to less than 0.1 μrad with minimal long-term drift. It provides a stable output of ±8 DC voltage (±16 VDC differential) and is suitable for applications such as volcano monitoring, geotechnical engineering, bridge deflection monitoring, precision metrology, radar platform leveling, and high-accuracy tilt monitoring.

A701-2 Tiltmeter Datasheet-1

Model A701-2A/B High-precision Platform Tiltmeter The model A701-2 Platform mount tiltmeter is our most popular design for high precision tilt measurements. Units come with built in invar leveling legs, for easy installation on any horizontal surface. The A701-2 also includes two switchable gains and two low-pass filter settings. Using an absolute gravity referenced electrolytic sensor, the A701 delivers ultra-high sensitivity to <0.1 μrad with virtually zero long-term drift. Output is a stable ±8 DC voltage (±16 VDC differential). Rugged, reliable, and extremely accurate, the A701-2 is the preferred choice for volcano monitoring, high-precision geotechnical engineering, bridge deflection monitoring, precision metrology, radar platform leveling, and high-accuracy tilt monitoring applications worldwide.
