SAE1- Inclination sensor

SAE1

Multifunction angular sensor
  • Both pitch/roll and 360° angle sensor
  • 0.1° accuracy
  • 0.025° resolution
  • Rugged stainless steel 316 housing
  • Software configurable

Made to endure

The SAE1 is a high accuracy angle CAN sensor. It is specifically designed to be used in demanding machine guidance applications. It can be software configured as a full 360° angle sensor or a +-90° pitch roll sensor. Its stainless steel housing and connectors provide protection in the harshest environments.

MEMS
MEMS technology

The SAE1 uses MEMS technology to create a sensor that has no moving parts. This ensures that it can endure high impacts and has no mechanical wear.

CAN
Configurable over CAN bus

Once installed the sensor can be configured over the CAN bus. It has three predefined filters to match the required responsiveness.

Sensor
Multifunctional sensor

It is designed so you would only need one sensor that can be configured for the task at hand. It can be used for both bulldozer and excavator applications.

Possibilities
Wide range of possibilities

There are a variety of mounting plates and cabling solutions with or without protection readily available to meet the different applications.

Balance
Verified stability

Every sensor is calibrated to specification and verified on our calibration benches in both the rotational and pitch-roll planes and is stability verified before shipping.
