Specifications

The 0729-1752-99 inclinometer measures tilt angle and inclination in one or two axes with high accuracy and resolution. This inclinometer utilizes a Fredericks, dual axis, electrolytic tilt sensor and tilt sensor signal conditioner.
 
The Fredericks RS-232 Tilt Sensor Inclinometer is designed and manufactured in the United States of America at our facility in Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania. It functions with any Fredericks electrolytic tilt sensor which provides a highly stable and repeatable output at a competitive price. It has the option of being mounted in a robust plastic or metal housing with epoxy potting to provide IP66 environmental protection. The RS-232 interface makes this tilt sensor inclinometer optimal for a variety of applications in many sectors. Its features include, but are not limited to, the ability to: 
 
1.  Set zero position
2.  Output X and Y position through RS-232
3.  Output temperature through RS-232
4.  Set a timed output through RS-232
