Cylindrical Inclinometers For Space-Limited Areas

Sherborne Sensors has launched a range of high-precision, gravity-referenced dual-axis inclinometers for measurements in space-constrained areas such as borehole or well logging and seismic studies. The T820 series cylindrical inclinometers, available for ranges from +/-14.5deg to +/-60deg, measure just 23mm in diameter and 161mm in length. The range includes the T823 with an environmentally sealed connector and cable system or the T825 with solder pin terminations.

They can operate from a bipolar input voltage range of +/-12VDC to +/-18VDC or a single-ended voltage range of 9VDC to 18VDC. A high-level output of +/-5VDC is achieved for the bipolar supplied unit and 0.5VDC to 4.5VDC output is achieved for the single-ended version. The T820 series is made from stainless steel to prevent corrosion and to reduce angular errors that can be caused by the mechanical flexibility found in alternative aluminium alloy-constructed sensors.

They also have a precision angular alignment capability for increased installed resolution. The inclinometers continue to deliver precision accuracy in temperatures ranging from -18C to +70C and will survive temperatures down to -40C. Mike Baker, managing director of Sherborne Sensors, said: 'Borehole logging for the drilling of oil, gas, water or minerals or as part of environmental or geotechnical studies requires high levels of precision and accuracy.

'The T820 series has been designed to operate in the smallest of areas and can withstand high levels of mechanical shock without any degradation in performance,' he added. Sherborne can customise all of its inclinometer designs and can manufacture to conform to specific customer requirements. All Sherborne products are tested and calibrated to international standards at the factory prior to shipment and are accompanied by a two-year warranty and the Guaranteed On Time Delivery programme.
