The STT Tilt Sensor series use solid state 3D-MEMS
(Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) technology to measure the sensor's inclination relative to earth's gravity. These electronic tilt sensors are suitable for use in applications such as road construction equipment, cranes and booms, scissor lifts, agricultural vehicles, container handling and hydraulic lift systems. By using solid-state system-on-chip technology, the STT series provides distinct advantages in reliability, stability and compactness over fluid based, electrolytic and pendulum operated sensors. For maximum flexibility this new sensor range has a low power requirement of less than 6.5mA, so it can be used in hard-wired or battery-powered wireless systems.

STT280 - Sealed Tilt Sensor

The new STT280 sealed tilt sensor is designed
to provide reliable, fit-and-forget tilt
measurement sensing within an extremely
compact housing, for the most arduous
operating environments. The STT280 is
suitable for use in applications such as road
construction equipment, cranes and booms,
scissor lifts, agricultural vehicles, container
handling and hydraulic lift systems.


The STT280 uses solid state 3D-MEMS (Micro-Elect
ro-Mechanical Systems) technology to measure the
sensor's inclination relative to earth's gravity. The
STT280 has a choice of measurement ranges from ±10°,
±20°, ±30° and ±60° and provides a 0.5 to 4.5Vdc
output signal over this range, with a nominal 2.5Vdc at
0° tilt.  By using this technology, the STT280 provides
distinct advantages in reliability, stability and
compactness over fluid based, electrolytic and pendulum
operated sensors.

The STT280 can operate from a 5Vdc regulated or
8-30Vdc unregulated supply. 

Key Features  
• No moving parts
High resolution ±0.07°
Absolute measurement
• Measuring ranges ±10°, ±20°, ±30° and ±60°
Less than 6.5mA supply current
    Crush-proof mounting flange
Rugged construction, sealed to IP68
