TKE XY-CAN-EFS Inclinometer is three-axis inclinometer sensor with CANopen protocol
TKE XY-CAN-EFS Inclinometer sensor can be used for measuring the lateral (X), longitudinal (Y) and vertical (Z) angle with respect to gravity. It can also simultaneously operate as a 360° (H) sensor in XY plane. Inclination measurings are based on the high accuracy accelerometer IC. The XY-CAN-EFS has an IP67 rated housing made from acid proof steel and the electronics is encapsulated in a durable epoxy. XY-CAN-EFS is equipped with two M12-connectors for CAN and Power. The pinout in M12 connectors is according to CANopen standard. Communication-protocol with control systems is CANopen, according to CiA DS301 and the sensor follows Inclinometer device profile CiA DSP410.
Typical applications
Typical applications for XY-CAN-EFS are in mining machines and excavators boom-control, in snow-removal machines controlling the blades etc. Obviously this sensor can be used in several other mobile machines where accurate inclination measurement is necessary.
