Sherborne Sensors LSOC/LSOP Series Servo Inclinometers

Product catalog summary

Overview
The Schaevitz® LSOC/LSOP is a DC-operated, gravity-referenced servo inclinometer designed for industrial and military applications. It is self-contained, providing a high-level DC output signal proportional to the sine of the angle of tilt, with ranges from ±1° to ±90°. The device is extremely rugged, capable of withstanding shocks up to 1500g.

Features

Self-contained system requiring only a DC power source and a readout or control device.
High-level DC output signal proportional to tilt angle.
Available in ranges from ±1° to ±90°.
Rugged design with 1500g shock resistance.

Applications

Geophysical, seismic, and civil engineering studies.
Marine applications such as ballast transfer systems.
Level control and calibration systems.
Heavy-duty construction control requirements.
Large machinery installation and electronic level applications.
