Description

The SB1I is a pressure die cast aluminium sensor housing (IP65) with an integrated sensor for measuring uniaxial acceleration or inclination. In addition to the sensor, the box contains a signal conditioner with 4…20mA, 2-wire output and a separate, highly stable supply voltage feeding off the current loop. Furthermore, the signal conditioner includes an active low pass filter, whose upper cut-off frequency / settling time can be adjusted to suit the measurement task, an output stage with current limitation, a noise voltage filter and a diode bridge for unipolar coupling to the current loop. Interference signals caused by unwanted ground currents are avoided by electrically isolating sensor and signal conditioner from the housing. Unlike the SB2.., the SB1I can accommodate larger inclinometers, such as the NG-series, that have a higher measuring accuracy. A special electronic temperature compensation system can significantly reduce the temperature sensitivity of the implemented sensor. The compact metal cable guide and small housing size in combination with the 2-wire connection enable the use of this high quality measuring system in harsh operating conditions.


Application

The SB1I is suitable for applications requiring precise inclination or acceleration measurements under harsh circumstances and returning of a 4…20mA output signal. Areas of successful implementation include construction, mining, agricultural machinery, transportation and conveyor systems, ships, operation and automation technology as well as general mechanical engineering.
