Compact inclination sensors for harsh outdoor conditions

Baumer: Quite many sensors meet their limits when it comes to measuring angles in harsh outdoor conditions. Inclination sensors in robust industrial design by sensor expert Baumer ensure reliable measurements of tilt angles even in very demanding environments. The new GIM140R series also stands out by the compact 48 mm design and provides maximum flexibility in system planning and design.

The Baumer inclination sensors integrate MEMS sensor elements that are particularly qualified for the rough applications in industrial and mobile automation. The non-contact sensor operation without any without moving parts is completely wear-free for maximum reliability under harshest conditions.

The GIM140R series in the extremely flat design of merely 14 mm installation depth excels by an absolute measuring accuracy of up to ±0.4˚ and hence ensures maximum reliability and system uptime. IP 67 / IP 69K protection, C5-M corrosion resistance and the wide temperature range from  -40 to +85 °C make the sensors virtually immune against temperature fluctuations and pollution of all kinds. The robust and resilient aluminium housing and the all-encapsulated electronics particularly qualify the new, robust and durable series for continuous outdoor operation at mobile installations.
