3 Intended use
Dynamic MEMS inclination sensors detect and measure the angle of tilt
(inclination/slope/elevation) of an object in relation to the force of gravity� This is
possible while the object stands still (static) or while it is moving (dynamic)�
The unit offers integrated linearisation and temperature compensation and ignores
external accelerations�
This makes the sensor particularly apt for moving (dynamic) applications and
harsh environments�
JD1xxx: Single-axis inclination sensor with an angular range of 0���360°�
JD2xxx: Dual axis inclination sensor with an angular range of ±90°�
Properties:
●
high accuracy also during external accelerations
Typical applications are:
●
mobile machines
●
agricultural machines
●
elevating work platforms
●
automated guided transport vehicle (AGV)
