Measured inclination 30º

The two-dimensional inclination sensor with a configured range of 15°, 30°

and 60° must be mounted with the base plate in horizontal position, i.e.

parallel to the horizontal line. The inclination sensor may also be installed

upside down, i.e. turned by 180°.

The sensor can be inclined both towards the X and Y axis at the same time.

For each axis a separate measured value is provided. Default on delivery

the inclination sensor will apply the selected sensing range to both axis, for

example ±15° with the zero passage being precisely in the horizontal line.

The inclination sensor with a configured range of 360º must be mounted in a

way that the X-axis as in the following sketch is directed in a parallel way

towards gravity. The deflection may not be more than ±3º.

Please note also that the inclination sensor must evenly touch the contact

surface and during inclination/rotation must not be subject to any inclination

in X- or Y-direction since this would have a negative impact on the measu-

ring accuracy.

The 360° inclination sensor default position is 0° as shown in the following

illustration but may be configured at will by help of the preset function.

The measuring direction may also be inverted. Default on delivery the

inclination sensor’s sensing direction is clockwise from 0...360°, in case of

active inversion counter-clockwise.
