Dual-axis inclinometer VTS6D

RS-485RS-232Modbus

Product overview
The VTS6D is a precision industrial vibration and tilt sensor from Ruicom Technology. Each unit is calibrated, temperature-compensated and stability-tested across the full operating temperature range to ensure reliable measurements in demanding environments. The sensor integrates an FFT algorithm to extract vibration metrics in the 0.5–20 Hz band and calculates peak vibration velocity and maximum displacement. It supports MODBUS and multiple physical interfaces for system integration.
