PosiTilt - Inclination Sensors

Micromechanical. Wear-free.

positilt^® inclination sensors offer contactless, wear-free, and absolute measurement of tilt angles ranging up to ±180°. The use of MEMS technology makes these sensors particularly resistant to shock, vibrations, and contamination. As a result, positilt^® inclination sensors are ideal for use in outdoor applications. Various designs are available to reflect the wide range of potential applications.

The Advantages

• Wear-free
• Measurement range up to ±180°
• Degree of protection up to IP68/IP69
• Impact resistant
• MEMS technology
• Single or dual axis measurement

positilt^® inclination sensors rely on micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) to measure the angle of tilt. They utilize spring-mass systems that determine the deflection of small test masses and thereby measure the inclination of the system. The interface electronics use this information to create conventional, industry-standard analog or digital output types.
