An inclinometer measures the angle to the direction of the gravity in one or more axes.
TLP300 is the new family of inclination sensors, based on the MEMS technology, capable of working in extreme conditions and hard environments, subjected to sharp movements, shocks and high vibrations.
The perfect synthesis of precision, stability, robustness and cost, which make it suitable for use on mobile devices and applications such as: cranes, aerial platforms, operating and earth moving machines. The integration of accelerometers and gyroscopes with sensor fusion proprietary algorithms, ensure high performances over all the operating range.

TLP300 dual axis inclinometer : The 2-dimensional tilt sensor must be mounted with the base plate in horizontal position, i.e. parallel to the horizontal line. The sensor can be tilted to both the X and Y axes at the same time. A separate measure is provided for each axis.
TLP300 single axis inclinometer : The 1-dimensional tilt sensor must be installed with the base plate in vertical position, i.e. Z-axis perpendicular to the force of gravity. The default “zero point” position is the one shown in the following images.
