Product catalog summary
Overview: The Model 900 Biaxial Clinometer by Jewell Instruments is a cost-effective, gravity-referenced tiltmeter with a wide dynamic range, suitable for various measurement and control applications. It is compact and precise, available with either +/-2.5V or 0-5V DC output, and can be custom calibrated.
Specifications:
  • Angular Range: Available in ±10°, ±25°, and ±50°.
  • Resolution: 0.005° for high-gain, 0.01° for standard, and 0.02° for wide-angle.
  • Repeatability: Consistent at 0.02° across all models.
  • Scale Factor: 4°/V for high-gain, 10°/V for standard, and 25°/V for wide-angle.
  • Non-Linearity: 1% for high-gain, 2.5% for standard, and 7% for wide-angle.
  • Output: Options for ±2.5 VDC or 0-5 VDC.
  • Channels: X-tilt, Y-tilt, and Temperature.
  • Environmental Conditions: Operates between -40 to +85°C with 0-90% humidity.
  • Dimensions: 2 x 2 x 0.64 inches, weighing 0.5 oz.
Electrical Characteristics:
  • Power Requirements: +8 to +24 VDC for bipolar output; +10.5 to +26.5 VDC for 0-5V output.
  • Output Impedance: 270 ohms, short circuit protected.
  • Time Constant: 0.15 seconds.
  • Natural Frequency: 10 Hz.
Materials: The device uses a glass electrolytic sensor and a fiberglass PCB.
Ordering Information: Includes pin-out/wiring details with color-coded functions for easy installation.
Additional Notes: Specifications are subject to change due to ongoing development. The resolution is calculated at 1mV, and linearity is calculated as the maximum percentage deviation from the Best Fit Straight Line (BFSL), with 0.05% linearity achievable using a polynomial.
