Curtiss-Wright’s Industrial division has announced the launch of the VTS2021, a dual-axis, vibration-tolerant tilt sensor.
- Offers optimal combination of performance, safety and cost in dynamic applications
- Suited for pitch and roll detection in on- and off-highway industrial vehicle applications, including mobile elevating work platforms
- Uses IMU technology and fast-acting software algorithms to filter out disturbances caused by vibration and vehicle motion
- Provides output stability without measurement delays usually associated with heavily-damped, traditional sensing methods
- Each measurement axis has two sensing elements which are constantly compared to ensure correct operation
- If error is detected, its condition is communicated to host electronics to ensure safe operating situation is assumed
- Each output signal is calibrated to account for thermal drift, ensuring accuracy over operating temperature range
- Operates from 6-48V DC supply
- For use on 12V and 24V DC vehicle systems
- SAE J1939 CANbus output with choice of baud and frame rates
- Outputs thermally compensated over -40-85 C (-40-185 F) operating range
- IP67 rating (with mated connector) provides outdoor environmental protection
- Integrated, 4-pin Deutsch DT04 compatible connector for quick, easy installation
