Digital tilt indicator
0.001°, 5-digit | DTI Series Sherborne Sensors Limited

Sherborne Sensors new DTI series is a family of 5-digit, programmable digital panel meters, designed to take an output from any gravity referenced inclinometer, provide necessary trigonometric conversions, and display the output as an angle, with a resolution down to 0.001°.

The DTI Series can be effectively implemented into simple, measurement-only applications, as well as those requiring digital communications, alarms and mathematical functions. Supplied, powerful menu-driven software enables fast and flexible set-up from the front panel or via serial communications link. Built-in, comprehensive alarm functions enable monitoring, switching and control functions. The hysteresis facility prevents noisy signals from switching alarms erroneously, with high and low deviations facilitating control around a set point. On and off delays can be set with individual alarms, configured as latching or non-latching, depending on requirements.

For seamless interface with a data acquisition system, two supplementary outputs, an analog voltage output and a RS422/485 serial output, are supplied. The enclosure is manufactured from recyclable and flame retardant (VO) materials, with front panel conformance to IP65: NEMA 4.

The DTI Series is suitable for use with most gravity-referenced inclinometers. An integral 12 VDC power supply is intended to provide excitation voltage for MEMS- based inclinometers. Bi-polar voltage supplied inclinometers may be also powered via Sherborne Sensors XT-0102 or XT-0103 series power supply modules. For customer convenience, the DTI Series can also be supplied as a completely calibrated tilt monitoring system, including the inclinometer.
