Sherborne Sensors LSI Series Servo Inclinometers

Product catalog summary

Overview
The Schaevitz® LSI Series is a DC-operated, gravity-referenced servo inclinometer designed for industrial and military applications. It provides a high-level DC output signal proportional to the sine of the angle of tilt and is available in ranges of ±14.5°, ±30°, and ±90°.

Features

Fully self-contained system requiring only a DC power source and a readout or control device.
Available in multiple tilt ranges: ±14.5°, ±30°, and ±90°.
Low impedance output signal with solder post electrical terminations.

Applications

Level control of machines and structures.
Safety control of cranes and lifting equipment.
Civil engineering studies.
Marine ballast transfer systems.
