3.1 Notice

Please observe all proper safety rules and regulations for electrical devices

when installing this inclinometer. In addition, the following recommendations are

made.

1. Do not apply power to the inclinometer during installation.

2. Avoid applying any mechanical pressure or stress to the housing.

3. Do not operate an inclinometer beyond the maximum angular sensing range

or threshold. Irreparable damage may occur.

4. Do not exceed the maximum fastening torque for the mounting screws,

as the base plate may become warped and/or irreparably damaged.

5. Use detergents free of solvents or acid for cleaning of the housing.

6. Avoid direct solar radiation.

7. Recommended tightening torque of cable gland (3±0.5 Nm) should be

checked once in a year after purchase to secure IP class of sensor module.

8. Should the inclinometer fail to operate properly, consult this manual for

possible solutions. Do not attempt to open the inclinometer, as damage may

occur. For other troubleshooting measures, please contact our service team.

4 General function of the inclinometer system

4.1 Description of the liquid/conductive measurement principle

Platinum electrodes are deposited in pairs on the base of the sensor’s cell parallel to the sensitive

axis. The chamber is partially filled with an electrolytic liquid. When an alternating voltage is passed

between two electrodes, the electric current will create a dispersed field. By tilting the sensor and

thereby reducing the level of liquid, it is possible to confine this stray field. Because of the constant,

specific conductivity of the electrolytes a variance of resistance is formed in relation to the liquid level.

A basic differential principle will yield an angle of inclination from the polarity signs.

5 Mechanics and Conditions

5.1 Mounting Instructions

The inclinometer is designed for horizontal mounting, meaning the base plate of the inclinometer with

the three mounting holes needs to be placed on the horizontal plane of the object to be measured.

The mounting surface must be smooth and free of dust and grease. Fasten inclinometer to the surface

to be measured with three M4 screws, and use recommended tightening torque (depends on property

class of chosen screws, e.g. 2.9 Nm if M4 8.8 class screws are used with dry threads).

5.2 Installation

Prior to installation, please check for all connection and mounting instructions to be complied with.

Please also observe the general rules and regulations on low voltage technical devices.

Avoid shock and vibration during measurement, as these could adulterate the measurement results.

Inclination sensors that base on a fluidic measurement principle are optimal for static measurements

and suitable to only a limited extent of dynamic measurement.

5.3 Measurement

Tilt angle measurements are made in the ‘X’ and ‘Y’ axis’ (longitudinal and lateral respectively), with

the reference being the horizontal plane.

5.4 Mounting

For operation this inclinometer has to be mounted horizontally (see Fig. 5.1), reference is the base plate.
