Economical Geotechnical Tiltmeter Selector Guide

Product catalog summary
Specifications Overview:
The document provides detailed specifications for various angular measurement devices, including their angular range, resolution, repeatability, scale factor, and temperature coefficients. The angular ranges are specified as ±10°, ±25°, and ±50° with corresponding resolutions and repeatability values. Scale factors are given in °/V and °/mA, with non-linearity percentages and time constants also provided.

Temperature and Environmental Ratings:
Devices are rated for operating temperatures ranging from -40°C to +85°C, with some models extending to +95°C. Storage temperature ranges are similar. The devices are designed to be robust, with IP65 and IP67 waterproof ratings, ensuring durability in various environmental conditions.

Power and Output Specifications:
Power requirements vary from 8-24V DC to 112-29V DC, depending on the model. Output options include analog (±2.5V DC, 0-5V DC) and digital (RS232, RS422, RS485) formats, with some models offering 4-20mA outputs.

Applications and Features:
The devices are suitable for structural monitoring, platform leveling, industrial machinery positioning, and construction monitoring. They feature low-cost MEMS technology, robust enclosures, and compliance with RoHS standards. Some models offer GPS compatibility and are designed for precision and affordability.

Additional Notes:
Specifications are subject to change due to ongoing product development. Custom ranges are available upon request, and further details can be found on the manufacturer's website.
