MEMS inclinometer
±90º | T640 series Sherborne Sensors Limited

Sherborne Sensors has introduced the T640 series, a range of high-reliability solid state tilt sensors for data acquisition systems, road bed analysis, platform and pipeline leveling, structural monitoring, ship ballast transfer systems, and other applications.

Available in ranges of ±30°, ±60° and ±90°, the T640 series features an advanced solid-state MEMS sensor, incorporating integral air damping. Unlike fluid-damped devices, air damping is essentially independent of temperature, which enables the tilt sensor to reliably perform over a very wide temperature range (-40° to +100°C), with essentially zero temperature coefficient of damping ratio. Units are compensated for effects of temperature on both sensitivity and zero, and incorporate positive mechanical stops, conferring excellent shock resistance.

The T640 series is designed to operate from an unregulated DC power source and offers a high useable frequency response. A 5Hz low-pass filter is standard, with units offering simultaneous filtered and unfiltered outputs. Signal ground is isolated from power ground. Electrical terminations are via military-style, Bayonet connector or solder pins, with optional mating connector. Sherborne Sensors can custom design and manufacture variations to specific customer requirements.
