A practical evidence checklist for RFQ preparation and supplier evaluation.
CNFX does not score or rank suppliers. Buyers must verify all claims and documents with the legal manufacturer before ordering.
The typical measuring range for a single-axis slope sensor is -90° to +90°. This range covers most industrial applications for leveling and slope monitoring. For specific models, the range may be narrower or wider, so always check the datasheet.
Common output signals include 4–20 mA current loop, RS485, CAN, and 0–10 V. The choice depends on the control system interface. Verify the output type and compatibility with your equipment.
Accuracy is typically ±0.1° at 25 °C, with high-end models achieving better than ±0.05°. Accuracy can be affected by temperature and mounting, so calibration may be required for critical applications.
The sensor operates in temperatures from -40 °C to 85 °C and has an ingress protection rating of IP67 (IP68 for submersible). It can withstand vibration up to 20 g and shock up to 100 g. Always verify these ratings for your specific model.
