About the PNS-3 Digital Display with Inclinometer

This PNS-3-T is a tilt measurement system developed for measuring the tilt of die-cast (ingot mold) in steel treatment. The power supply and display unit consist of a measuring amplifier with digital display in a robust aluminium table top housing and is designed to be used together with a high-precision inclinometer and connection cable (different length and type available – see ordering information). The rechargeable built-in battery enables mobile data acquisition. 

In scope of delivery, there is a high-class external battery charger. The power supply provides the voltage supply for the display, as well as for the precision inclinometer LSOC-3. The tilt angle will be displayed on the LED Display in units of [mm] related to the coquille length. With a switch on the front, you can choose between the two related coquille length. These are 700 and 900 mm or 900 mm and 1100 mm, other coquille length are possible on request. Additional accessories like mounting brackets, mechanical stops, etc. have to be procured by 3rd. party. 

  • +/-3° Inclination = 36,7 mm (coquille length 700 mm) 
  • +/-3° Inclination = 47,2 mm (coquille length 900 mm) 
  • +/-3° Inclination = 57,7 mm (coquille length 1100 mm)
