Tilt Sensor
Tilt Sensor Tilt sensors allow you to detect orientation or inclination. They are small, inexpensive, low-power and easy-to-use. If used properly, they will not wear out. Their simplicity makes them popular for toys, gadgets and appliances. This sensors is a solution for where you need detect when something has shifted from it’s desired orientation. It’s a simple ball-in-a-sleeve that when rolled to one end closes a contact. Actually, it’s a pair of balls, the second ball reinforces the bridging of the contacts by the first ball. In it’s simplest application, it could be hung straight down and would close only if it were swung over 90° in any orientation. Team up 2 or 3, adjust the angles, and you could have it report when orientation shifts past any one of their angles. Sort of a really poor-man’s gyro/g-force sensor. Note: The orientation of the pins will affect the responsiveness of the sensor. Laid horizontally, the balls will bridge the sensor pins much more easily than if the pins are laid vertically. check out : KY-010 Broken Light Blocking Sensor Applications: To detect the position of hand-held game systems and in game controllers To indicate the roll of boats, vehicles and aircraft To measure the angle at which a satellite antenna 'looks' toward a satellite To estimate the height of a tree or building To measure the steepness of a ski slope To provide a warning system for the surface tilt angle of cryogenic liquids during transportation To monitor laser levels and seismic activity Package Includes: 1 x Tilt Sensor Specifications Voltage < 12V Current < 20ma Differential angle 15 degree Contact Resistance <10 ohm Insulation Resistance >10M ohm Dimensions 12.2mm length x 5.4mm diameter cylinder Weight 5 grams
- This switch to use metal material manufacturing, electrical characteristics and mercury switch similar but no mercury switch risk and environmental problems, and the shaking of the single guide through the same properties, assembly use more convenient security.
- When the electric property to restore open state (OFF), switch Settings environment must be static, and (OFF) open terminal Settings should be below the horizontal angle.
- Normally open/closed (depending on installation orientation)
- It contains a metallic ball inside that will commute the two pins of the device from CLOSED to OPEN if the sensor exceeds a certain angle and vice versa.
