Improved tilt measurement on indicators
A range of five digit panel meters offering improved tilt measurement system versatility and performance has been unveiled by Sherborne Sensors.
The DTI series digital tilt indicators are designed to take an output from any Sherborne Sensors gravity referenced inclinometer, providing trigonometric conversions and displaying the output as an angle, with a resolution down to 0.001°.
To interface with a data acquisition system, two supplementary outputs, an analogue 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.
According to Sherborne, the DTI series can be implemented into measurement only applications as well as those requiring digital communications, alarms and mathematical functions. The menu driven software, also supplied, is designed to enable set up from the front panel or via serial communications link and the built in, comprehensive alarm functions makes them suitable for monitoring, switching and control functions.
The series can be supplied as a completely calibrated tilt monitoring system, including the inclinometer.
