Robust PST20 inclination sensor with a high level of accuracy

Universal inclination sensor with IP69K for hydraulic platforms, lift arms, solar systems

The PST20 is a universal application inclination sensor with a +/-0.07° degree of accuracy and very low interference at an attractive price.

The high degree of IP69K protection makes it the ideal candidate for outdoor applications in solar systems, mobile machines, cranes or lift arms. Its measurement range can be set between ± 5° and 360°.

The sensor comes with a selection of interfaces: analogue power or voltage outputs and the digital interfaces RS485, RS232, CAN2.0B and, shortly, CANOpen. The high level of accuracy of ± 0.1° or ± 0.07° is achieved by internal temperature compensation and the very stable mechanical construction.

Thanks to its long useful life (MTBF) of 10 years, the sensor is extremely suitable for industrial applications in particular.

Technical details:

• ± 0.1° or ± 0.07° degree of accuracy with temperatures between -15 and +50°C

• Interference ± 0.5% of the measurement range

• 50 Hz refresh rate, 10 Hz bandwidth

• IP69 (10-m immersion depth)

• 10-year MTBF

• Temperature range from -40°C to +85°C
