1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
RST Instruments MEMS Sensor Tilt Beam is mounted on vertical or horizontal
surfaces and can measure differential angles in the X or Y directions. The Horizontal
or Vertical MEMS Tilt Beam system consists of a fiberglass beam with mounting
brackets, and a uniaxial MEMS sensor. The Vertical Tilt Beam is capable of uniaxial
as well as biaxial MEMS sensors (optional). Because of the excellent zero and range
stability, no separate sensor leveling is required- i.e. the enclosure should be mounted
as close to level as possible, but no secondary level adjustment is required.
