Mechanical Inclinometers: 1000 Series

1000 Series Mechanical Inclinometers

Our 1000 series mechanical inclinometers use precision scientific glass tube and ball construction with engraved markings. Certain models are available with customer specified color warning zones. All our tubes are filled with special damping fluid that controls the movement of the ball. The fluid combined with large, clear number and degree markings make it easy to get quick, accurate readings under a wide variety of severe environmental conditions. Our 1000 series mechanical inclinometer housings are made of rugged, aircraft-grade aluminum. Some applications include visual reference of slope angle, roll or tip-over preventions, platform leveling, load balancing, and measuring degree of angle or slope.

Mechanical Inclinometers are instruments for measuring angles of slope and inclination of an object with respect to its gravity by creating an artificial horizon. It is also known as a tilt sensor, tilt indicator, slope meter, slope gauge, gradient meter, gradiometer, level gauge & level meter. An inclinometer is commonly used in different industries like Aviation, civil engineering, Government, Marine, Military, and Transportation for platform leveling, boom angle indication, and slope angle measurement. The tilt angle range is the range of desired linear output measured in degrees. Important specifications to consider when searching for tilt sensors and inclinometers are the tilt angle range and number of axes.
