Biaxial Tiltmeter with waterproof housing
The biaxial tiltmeter is a dual-axis clinometer for structural, geotechnical and industrial monitoring, available as the traditional MD900 model with a mounting backing plate and built-in lightning suppression, or as a compact Geosystems digital tilt sensor for direct connection to digital logging and telemetry systems.
- Range
- ±10° / ±25° / ±50° (selectable)
- Output
- RS-232, RS-422/RS-485; NMEA XDR, Trimble TCM, BAE and Ashtech-compatible formats
- Ingress
- IP65 (NEMA 4X)
Overview
In detail
How it works
The biaxial clinometer measures tilt (pitch and roll) simultaneously on two axes. It is used across a wide range of industrial, scientific and GPS applications, including antenna positioning, surface and subsea marine work, structural monitoring, and industrial test and measurement.
Models
The traditional MD900 tiltmeter comes with a convenient backing plate for easy installation and an inbuilt suppressor board for lightning protection. A newer, compact Geosystems digital dual-axis tilt sensor is also available and connects simply to digital logging and data telemetry solutions.
Housing & protection
The MD900 model is housed in a die-cast, painted aluminium enclosure rated to NEMA 4X / IP65, operating across -40 to +85°C.
