Inclination sensors

Inclination sensors from WIKA: highly accurate, versatile, independent

WIKA offers various different designs of inclination sensors. Inside the inclination sensors is a dielectric fluid, which - like a spirit level - aligns horizontally by gravity, without gravitational acceleration errors. The measurements are independent of gravitational fluctuations and therefore reproducible at every location. By detecting the differential capacitance, the inclination angle is calculated. With this technology, measurement is possible up to 360°. Accuracies of < 0.1 % can be achieved with this. They are also available for redundant and multi-axis applications and with flameproof enclosures. WIKA inclination sensors offer high ingress protection, are suitable for harsh environments and can be used in temperature ranges from -40 °C up to 80 °C.
