Single and dual axis Inclinometer Sensor with
Digital (RS485) output
KAS1001 and KAS1002-Series for inclination and angle measurement
The sensing elements work based on the capacitive principle with a rugged proof-mass. They feature high
precision and high shock resistance, resulting among others from the improved bulk micro electro mechanical
system, made of high purity silicon. Due to the especially appropriate structure, no drifts caused by deformation of
the sensing mass are expected even after several hits. The gas damping inside the sensing element prevents
resonance oscillations or overshooting of the sensing mass.
The sensor is mounted in a water proof housing (IP67/IP68) which provides three holes for fixation and a
commonly used M12 connector (IP68). The digital (RS485) output allows for long connecting lines. Multiple
sensors can be connected to the same bus system.
Standard sensors are available as single or dual axis versions with ±15°, ±30°, ±90° and new ± 180° measuring
ranges.
All sensors are calibrated at 1g/0°. Thus a further zero alignment (other than mechanical adjustment to the
application) is not necessary but recommended according to the application (command is provided).Acceleration
and vibration measuring sensors with other measuring range and output are available.
