Functional principle
The inclinometers use an acceleration
measuring cell to determine the angle. The
Earth's gravity is used as a reference. If the
inclinometer changes its angle relative to
the Earth's gravity, this is detected by the
acceleration measuring cell. The signal is then
linearized so that a value proportional to the
angle is output.
The measuring principle used makes mounting
and commissioning the device easy. The robust
sensors are positioned with the cast side on
a flat surface so that the casting compound is
covered. The sensor is then secured with two
screws.
The sensor can also record the temperature,
which can be used to monitor the condition of
the machine.
