Product catalog summary
Overview
Meggitt Sensing Systems specializes in various measurement products including LVDTs, inertial systems, inclinometers, accelerometers, IMUs, MEMS sensors, servo-inclinometers, and conditioners. Their products serve sectors such as aerospace, energy, measurement, and railway.

Product Description
The Sensorex® SX41400 is a dual-axis servo-inclinometer/accelerometer designed for angular tilt or acceleration measurements across two perpendicular axes. It features a rugged, watertight IP65 sealed housing, providing high resistance to shock and vibration. The device uses a galvanometer pendulum sensing element with an optical position sensor to deliver outputs proportional to the sine of the tilt angle.

Key Characteristics
  • High performance with excellent temperature stability.
  • Hydro-mechanical damping for enhanced shock and vibration resistance.
  • Hybrid technology servo amplifier.
  • Conforms to CE norm EN 61326.

Applications
  • Industry: Alignment of structures, safety purposes, and levelling.
  • Defense: Positioning of shooting platforms and detection of ship roll and pitch.

Specifications
  • Outputs: ±5V or 4-20 mA.
  • Power Supply: 10V to 30V, with a maximum of 35 mA (55 mA for 4-20 mA version).
  • Consumption: Max 60 mA (voltage output) and max 100 mA (current output).
  • Bandwidth: 4Hz to 12Hz depending on range.
  • Non-linearity: Less than 0.05% of FS (optional 0.02% except for ±90° range).
  • Operating Temperature: -40°C to +80°C.
  • Storage Temperature: -55°C to +85°C.
  • Protection: IP 65.

Performance Metrics
  • Non-repeatability & hysteresis: Less than 0.001% of FS.
  • Cross-axis sensitivity: Less than 0.005 g/g.
  • Bias: 0.15% of FS max.
  • Electrical noise: Less than 2 mVrms (0Hz to 1kHz).
  • Bias thermal drift: 0.01% of FS/°C.
  • Sensitivity thermal drift: 0.01% of measure/°C.

Options
  • Special bandwidth and range.
  • Zero offset (unipolar output).
  • Integrated temperature sensor.

Aerospace Energy Measurement Railway Dual axis servo-inclinometer/ accelerometer SX41400 Characteristics  High performances  Excellent temperature stability  Hydro-mechanical damping for very high shock and vibration resistance  Rugged, watertight IP65 sealed housing for severe environments  Hybrid technology servo amplifier  Conform to CE norm EN 61326 Meggitt (Sensorex) SX41400 is a dual axis closed loop inclinometer/ accelerometer, offering angular tilt or acceleration measurements in two perpendicular axis. Rugged, watertight IP 65 sealed housing and hydro-mechanical damping allow a very high shock and vibration resistance. A galvanometer pendulum sensing element, combined with an optical position sensor, offers two outputs proportional to the sine of the angle of tilt. When the instrument is submitted to a certain angle, the galvanometer pendulum tends to move in the direction of the inclination. Its position is detected and converted into a current which feeds back to the galvanometer in order to bring it back to its initial position. This current passes through an accuracy resistor and provides the output voltage. An output amplifier gives low output impedance.
