AccuStar® II/DAS 20

(Measurement Specialties - Schaevitz: Tilt Measurement)

Applications:

Inclinometers

Inertial Sensors - Tilt Measurement

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 ajustable. Range: ±20° Threshold / Resolution: 0.01 Linearity Null to 10°: ±0.2° 10° to 12° : ±2.5% 12° to 15° : ±3.0% 15 to 20° : Monotonic Null Repeatability: ±0.1 Frequency Response (-3db): 0.25 Hz
