Inertial Aerosystems has introduced a new range of economical miniature fluid filled tilt sensors manufactured by US-based Applied Geomechanics.

The range consists of two models, both of which use ceramic material instead of glass, which gives a faster settling time, wider operating temperature and excellent repeatability.

The model 84064-02 has an angular range of + or - 80 degrees with a linear range of + or - 60 degrees.

The resolution is less than.001 of a degree, with an operating temperature of -50 to 125C and weighs 22g.

The other model, the 84053 has an angular range of + or - 6 degrees and a linear range of + or - 3 degrees.

The resolution is less than .0001 of a degree (less than 1.75uRadian), repeatability of .0002 degrees and an operating temperature of -50 to 125C and weighs 9.5g.

All sensors have a fast warm up and high sensitivity with long-term stability.

The sensors are mounted on an anodised aluminium bracket that strengthens the assembly and simplifies installation and repositioning of these versatile products.

They can be used with any of the standard analogue or digital signal conditioners.

They have applications in structural monitoring, machine levelling, marine dynamics and attitude sensing.
