Sensor Test Circuitry

1 Difference between electrical and mechanical null
NOTE: Output sensitivity’s scale factor may be modified to
Individual requirements upon special order.

Tests were conducted by exciting the outer electrodes of the
sensor in a single axis mode using the Fredericks Universal signal
conditioner. Output curve and linearity specifications are shown
above. Information on electrolytic tilt sensor signal conditioning is
available on the Fredericks web site at www.frederickscom.com.
Caution! – Ensure that all test and operating circuits
are entirely free of direct current. Direct current will
cause
level damage and/or instability
Note! – The housing (center pin) is the active output
signal. The unit must be electrically isolated.
