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 are applicable in sectors such as aerospace, energy, measurement, and railway.

Product Focus: SX40000 MEMS Inclinometer
The SX40000 model is a high-performance MEMS inclinometer available in 1 and 2 axis configurations. It is designed for severe environments, offering robustness against shocks, vibrations, and electromagnetic perturbations.

Key Features
  • Measurement ranges: ±3°, ±5.75°, ±8°, ±14.5°, ±30°, ±70°
  • Output options: USB 2.0, RS485 Modbus RTU, 4-20mA
  • Long-term stability and high performance
  • Compliance with industrial standards: EMI 50121-3-2 V2006/EN 61326-1 V2013

Applications
  • Robotics
  • Safety systems (e.g., cranes, platforms)
  • Civil engineering monitoring
  • Industrial and machining equipment
  • Antenna positioning

Technical Specifications
  • Power supply: 4.5VDC to 30VDC
  • Non-linearity error: <0.05% of Full Scale
  • Adjustable bandwidth: 0.01Hz to 10Hz
  • Noise: <0.01°rms within 0-10Hz bandwidth

New MEMS based inclinometer-1

Aerospace Energy Measurement Railway High performances MEMS inclinometer, 1 & 2 axis SX40000 model Key features  Ranges: ±3°, ±5.75°, ±8°, ±14.5°, ±30°, ±70°  USB 2.0, 2 wires RS485 Modbus RTU, 4-20mA outputs  Designed for use in severe environments: shocks, vibrations and electro-magnetic perturbations.  Very good long term stability  High performances  Meet industrial standards: EMI 50121-3-2 V2006/ EN 61326-1 V2013 Meggitt (Sensorex) selected the best MEMS cells available on the market and associated them to the digital signal compensation and processing stage to obtain a tilt sensor that matches the key performances of servo-inclinometers, at an optimized cost. It achieves a maximum scale factor non-linearity error <0.05% Full Scale, a maximum bias calibration residual error on [-40°C/+85°C] of ±0.057° and a maximum scale factor calibration residual error on [-40°C/+85°C] of ±0.5%. SX40000 tilt sensor achieves superior performances under vibrations (low bias rectification error, low noise) with the use of over-damped sensitive elements and a very innovative differential measurement principle. Furthermore, the sensitive elements are designed to withstand very high g shocks (200g/ 6ms). Power supply can span from +4.5 to +30VDC. This unit is available in 6 different ranges, ±3°, ±5.75°, ±8°, ±14.5°, ±30° and ±70°.Signals are made available to the end-user as 4-20mA, RS485 and USB outputs. Specifically designed to operate in stringent vibratory environments, one of the key parameters of our MEMS tilt sensor is its adjustable bandwidth between 0.01Hz and 10Hz (thanks to a configurable digital filter). A complete auto test is automatically made at the start of the sensor and results are transmitted to the digital outputs and to the TOR BIT-OUT output.
