• Precision: (+25 °C) typical ±0.1°
• Scanning frequency 1600 Hz
• Limit frequency 0.1...25 Hz, 2nd order / deep-pass filter (default: 5 Hz)
• Programmable parameters: preset and offset value resp. filter
• Diagnostic function to identify parameterization errors
3.2 Installation position
The mounting position is of critical importance for the measured signal values. Depending on the mounting
position of the inclination sensor and the movement in the application, the analog signal values will increase
or decrease.
3.2.1 Installation position 1-dimensional
When installing the 1-dimensional inclination sensor, observe the rotation axis shown below is directed in
perpendicular position towards gravity. The maximum misalignment of ±3° must not be exceeded.
The sensor default position is 0° as shown in the illustration below but may be configured at will in a 2-point
teaching or zeroing operation.
