The SB1 Series provide single axis inclination or acceleration measurement in an environmentally protected housing. The sensing package incorporates a modular design allowing the user to select the measurement range and sensor that best suits the individual application. Both symmetrical (±3g) and oblique (-15° to +70°) ranges are available for tilt and acceleration measurements.
Inclination Ranges: ±4° to ±80° Acceleration Ranges: ±1g to ±10g
A complete sensor package is comprised of the following: a measurement sensor; an internal regulated power supply; signal conditioning for either current or voltage outputs; active low pass filtering for high frequency noise suppression. The filter's upper frequency and time constant can be customized to suit a wide range of requirements.
For additional functionality, two adjustable open collector outputs have been added to the 0 to 5 V output version (SB1U) to form a bi-directional, single axis tilt or acceleration switch - Model SB1S. Connecting these outputs to LED's, lamps, or buzzers can provide a convenient method to warn operators of unsafe or over-range conditions.
