    The PTAM27L Series inclinometer handles single and dual-axis tiltangle measurements.

    The PTAM27L Series inclinometer handles single and dual-axis tiltangle measurements. For single-axis versions, measurements range from ±15 to ±180°, in increments of 15°. For dual-axis versions, measurements range from ±15 to ±60°, in increments of 15°.

    The Series is an extension of the Positilt family of MEMS-based inclinometers. It offers high resolution and is shock resistant. The wear-free inclinometers feature 0.1° resolution, ±1° linearity, and ±100 × 10-6/°C temperature stability. Operating temperature range is 0 to 60°C full scale.
