ELAD®

Dual Axis Inclinometer

The ELAD® Dual-Axis Inclinometer, is a Dual-Axis family of Inclinometers, well positioned at the hi-end dual-axis systems providing servo-level performances at a much lower price point. Unlike MEMS-based sensors, the ELAD® is based on well-proven micro-capillary capacitive technology, featuring superior long-term stability and non-Linearity to assure best performance possible at this level.

Dedicated Hi Performance Analog-to-Digital converter provides the necessary analog front-end in terms of hi-resolution, non-linearity and temperature compensated measurements. Built-In Hi Performance µController handling all compensation and
computation tasks along with the communication protocol.

Dedicated mathematical modeling and calibration procedure taking care of Temperature compensation, Scale-Factor, Cross-
Axis, to assure high-performance results at various changing environmental conditions.
