digital inclinometer sensor

The main difference is continuous data without lowering a probe each time. You fix the sensor at the depth of interest, and it reports tilt in real time. There's no cable or reel wear, and you get readings during rain or at night without sending a crew. Accuracy-wise, a well-made MEMS digital unit holds calibration longer because there are no mechanical parts to drift.

Yes. Most of our sensors output RS-485, which feeds easily into common wireless loggers or nodes. We can also supply a 4-20 mA version if your existing network prefers that. Just share your protocol and power constraints when you inquire, and we'll suggest a compatible setup.

The sensor's firmware includes temperature compensation. A thermistor tracks temperature near the MEMS element, and a correction curve is applied to the raw output. This keeps zero-point stable over a typical -20°C to 60°C range. For sites with extremes beyond that, we can discuss extended calibration options.

Cable length is the most frequent request—we can provide cables up to 200 meters. Custom mounting brackets for your specific borehole casing or surface plate also save installation time. If you need a different connector standard, we can swap that too. Just have your site requirements ready, and our engineers will work out the details.

With the standard stainless steel housing and a proper protective sleeve, we've seen sensors still working after eight years in moderate conditions. The biggest risks are lightning and physical damage—surge protection at the data logger helps a lot. The sensor itself has no consumable parts, so lifespan mostly depends on how well the installation holds up.
