Inclinometer

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document details dual axis inclinometers designed for precise measurement of small changes from the vertical level in harsh conditions. These devices are suitable for outdoor monitoring of structures affected by various factors such as loading and foundation settlement.
Field of Applications: The inclinometers are applicable in off-shore wind turbine foundations, bridges, historical buildings, structural load testing, vessel and pontoon roll and pitch measurement, crane roll and pitch measurement, and structural health monitoring.
Key Features: The inclinometers are biaxial, offer high accuracy and resolution, excellent thermal stability, and use 4-20 mA current loops for signal immunity. They include enhanced surge protection, an internal temperature sensor for thermal drift compensation, and are available in models for horizontal or vertical mounting.
Key Benefits: These devices are robust against environmental conditions and suitable for both short-term and long-term monitoring, including remote areas.
Technical Characteristics: The inclinometers have a measuring range of ±15°, with high sensitivity and low sensitivity error. They feature a low output noise density and a 2nd order low-pass filter with a cutoff frequency of 12 Hz. Temperature measurement ranges from -40°C to +85°C with high accuracy.
Power Supply: The devices operate on a voltage range of 20-28 VDC and a current range of 20-80 mA.
Certifications: The inclinometers comply with various electromagnetic compatibility standards, including EN 55011 and FCC 47 Part 15 for emissions, and EN 61000 series for immunity to electrostatic discharge, radio frequency fields, and power frequency magnetic fields.
Operating Temperature: The devices are tested for operation between -40°C and +85°C, including cold start and dry heat conditions.
Ordering Information: When ordering, specify cable length and gauge. Engineering services offer special coatings, cables, and adaptations for specific environments.

INCLINOMETERS DUAL AXIS INCLINOMETERS DESIGNED TO WITHSTAND HARSH OPERATING CONDITIONS Those dual axis inclinometers are designed to measure very small changes from the vertical level, either on the ground or in structures. They exhibit high resolution and low thermal drift. Their mechanical design and enhanced internal surge protection make them particularly useful for the permanent outdoor monitoring of structures being subjected to various influences such as loading and foundation settlement.
