Inclinometers NS-5/E and NS-15E

The NS-5/E and NS-15/E inclinometers consist of a single axis tilt sensor integrated with a thick film hybrid circuit for signal processing. Multiple connecting leads are available to support a variety of applications.

For example, precision and sensitivity can be improved and zero can be varied by using simple passive components.

NS/E

The sensor element and the hybrid electronics are integrated into a sealed, ceramic package whose bearing surface has been ground flat for easy installation. Because the individual ceramic components have a very low, linear expansion coefficient, the inclinometer exhibits excellent performance and it is not affected adversely by the temperature of the surface that is being measured.
