Precise And Robust Tilt Sensors
Inclinometers, also called tilt sensors, are designed to measure the angle of an object with respect to the force of gravity. These tilt or level meters determine the angle orientation in space with gravity as reference and output these values via the appropriate electrical interface. Inclinometers are easy to integrate into an application because there is no need for mechanical linkages other than the installation itself – a real advantage for design engineers.

Dynamic inclinometers
Output a clean measurement signal that can be used reliably on mobile equipment such as cranes, construction, mining, agricultural machinery and other applications where sudden movements, shocks and vibrations are likely to be encountered.
Static inclinometers
It can significantly improve operating safety in mobile machines, platform levelling or medical applications by continuously monitoring the tilt or inclination angles. Inclinometers are much easier to install and thus less expensive compared to rotary encoders, making them ideal for applications such as solar trackers, scissor lift tables, and aerial work platforms.
Mounting and Installation
Dependent on the application and machine it may be necessary to mount the inclinometer horizontally to monitor the tilt angle of two axes or to install the sensor vertically to measure one axis.
