Fredericks expands line of Microprocessor-Based output dual axis Inclinometers to include RS 232 and RS 485 communications

The Fredericks Company, a leading ISO9001:2008 manufacturer of electrolytic tilt sensor and inclinometer products, has announced an expansion of their microprocessor-based analog output Dual Axis Inclinometer line.

In addition to their Dual Axis Inclinometer (Part #0729-1755-99) with 0-5 V outputs (x & y axis) for temperature, the company now offers a Dual Axis Inclinometer (Part #0729-1759-99) with RS 232 Communications and a Dual Axis Inclinometer (Part # 0729-1760-99) with RS 485 Communications.

All three (3) inclinometers are designed for easy use and interface with all types of instrumentation and equipment, offer an angle range of +/- 60º over x and y axis, 0.2 arc minutes resolution (.003 degrees), and +/- 0.1 degrees repeatability. Custom angle ranges are available.

The inclinometers’ compact, high impact plastic housing encloses microprocessor-based electronics that provide long-term reliability and environmental durability. The inclinometers are all RoHS compliant, consume low power, provide higher ingress protection (IP) rating, and offer minimal drift over lifetime compared to MEMs devices.

Typical applications include but are not limited to aerial lift platform leveling, monitor or control, crane boom angle measurement, robotic controls, satellite dish alignment, solar panel position and elevation control, wheel alignment systems, alarm system activation, machine tool leveling, and medical equipment positioning and monitoring.
