Inclination and acceleration sensors from Pepperl+Fuchs

December 2011 Sensors & Transducers

Pepperl+Fuchs’ F99 series inclination and acceleration sensors offer accurate and easily programmable sensors for inclination and acceleration monitoring in the areas of mobile equipment, renewable energies and factory automation. The new generation sensors are easily configured to provide incline or tilt angles between 0 and 360° on a standardised 4-20 mA or 0-5 V analogue interface. Switch outputs are also provided in order to monitor limit angles.

F99 sensor highlights:

* Customer-specific configuration of measuring ranges and outputs.

* Innovative mounting concept provides protection against mechanical shock and vibration.

* High protection rating IP68 and IP69K.

* Robust housing suitable for outdoor use.

* Extended temperature range -40 to 85°C.

* Increased noise immunity 100 V/m.

* CSA approval for worldwide use.

Applications are found in commercial and construction vehicles, transport and loading units, solar panels, automotive and production plants, rail and marine vessels and metal processing.
