AccuStar I low cost inclination sensor AccuStar I Series ±60° Analog voltage, PWM, Serial The AccuStar Electronic Clinometer is an extremely accurate angle measurement device. This compact and rugged sensor is ideal where space is critical and environmental conditions are serious design concerns. The heart of the system is a patented, capacitance-based sensor with no moving parts. When rotated about its sensitive axis, this unique sensor provides an exceedingly linear variation in capacitance, which is electronically converted into angular data. The sensor and low-power CMOS electronics are encased in a rugged plastic housing ready to install as a system component or as a stand-alone device. Designed for easy integration, with a choice of analog, ratiometric, digital or serial models, the clinometer produces an output signal corresponding to direction and magnitude of angular displacement
AccuStar IP-66 low cost inclination sensor AccuStar IP-66 Series ±3° to ±45° Analog voltage, 4-20mA The AccuStar IP-66 is designed for rugged industrial and outdoor applications. The die-cast, powder coated aluminum housing is suitable for the most hostile environments. Multiple input / output configurations provide for ease of implementation into your application. When utilizing the 0.5 to 4.5 volt dc. output, the AccuStar IP-66 may be operated on a standard automotive 12-Volt dc. electrical supply. The water tight enclosure is suitable for use in tower crane and marine applications, under all weather conditions. The 4 to 20 mA current output signal is ideal for machine control applications requiring long cable runs and provides for excellent noise immunity. An 18 to 30 Volt DC power supply is required for the 4 to 20 current signal output. EMI and RFI components have been incorporated in to the circuit design to provide noise immunity under the most severe conditions. European CE certification, for EMI, RFI and ESD, is pending. The AccuStar IP-66 may be calibrated for full scale output for ranges from ±3.0° to ±45°
NS-15/E low cost inclination sensor E-series ±5° up to ±15° Analog voltage The E-Series consists of a single axis tilt sensor integrated with a thick film hybrid circuit for signal processing. Multiple connecting leads are available to support a variety of applications. For example, precision and sensitivity can be improved and zero can be varied by using simple passive components. The sensor element and the hybrid electronics are integrated into a sealed, ceramic package whose bearing surface has been ground flat for easy installation
AccuStar II/DAS 20 Series low cost inclination sensor AccuStar II/DAS 20 Series ±20° Ratiometric voltage, PWM AccuStar II/DAS-20 combines the function of two clinometers in one package. The unique dome shaped design features a capacitance based sensor which produces output signals directly proportional to the relative tilt in two axes. Designed for high volume applications, AccuStar II/DAS-20 is priced to compete with much less capable mercury switches and other low cost level sensors. There are four output connections providing a choice of ratiometric, pulse width modulation (PWM) digital output. A mating connector (sold separately) provides the user with an easy plug-in connection. Null and scale factor are adjustable
NS-25/DQL2-IXA low cost inclination sensor 25/E2-Series ±25° Analog voltage The 25/E2-Series is a biaxial inclination sensor as a PCB Module for OEM use with measurement range +/-25°. It consists of dual basic inclination sensor cells based on a conductance measurement principle and their complete electronic biasing and readout, which is carefully designed in order to minimize drift and temperature effects
Anglestar digital protractor low cost inclination sensor AngleStar Digital Protractor ±45° None The AngleStar Digital Protractor Model DP-45 provides instant digital display of level, angle and tilt. Consists of a rugged electronic sensor, custom circuitry and liquid crystal display in an easy-to-use, hand held battery powered package. Features include alternate reference and display hold. Digital display eliminates the need to interpret a bubble or venire scale
AngleStar protractor system low cost inclination sensor AngleStar Protractor System ±19.99°, ±45.0°, 0° to 90.0° None The Anglestar Protractor System (APS) is a ready to use, stand alone system for angle measurements. The system incorporates a special AccuStar I ratiometric electronic clinometer, a digital display, and a standard four foot cable. This system will operate for over 1,000 hours on one 9 volt battery and may be powered from an external power source between 9 and 15 Vdc, drawing minimal current. The display may be mounted up to 200 feet from the sensor for remote sensing applications such as drilling equipment or tower crane overload protection. There are three systems to choose from: ±19.99 degrees with a 0.01 degree resolution, ±45°, or a +90° with 0.1 degree resolution. Cable lengths up to 200 feet are available. Consult us for details
