About the 711-2A/B/C (4X) Weatherproof Floor-Mount Tiltmeter

 – high-precision 2-axis tilt monitoring in harsh environments

The 711-2(4X) Weatherproof Floor-Mount Tiltmeter is a rugged, high-precision biaxial (X/Y) electrolytic tiltmeter designed for demanding outdoor and industrial installations. It offers the same measurement performance as the 701-2(4X), but in a floor-mount package that can be bolted or clamped to virtually any horizontal surface—ideal for locations with heavy traffic or vibration.

With an IP65 / NEMA 4X weather seal, the A711-2(4X) is well suited for wet, humid, and corrosive environments. It delivers <1 µrad resolution (or better, depending on version) and provides a stable ±8 VDC output (±16 VDC differential). Powerful internal electronics can drive cables over 1000 m, making it a strong choice for long-distance field installations.

Key benefits

  • Weatherproof protection: IP65 / NEMA 4X for harsh outdoor conditions
  • Floor-mount installation: bolt-on / clamp-on mounting for high-traffic or vibration-prone areas
  • 2-axis measurement + temperature: X-tilt, Y-tilt, Temperature
  • Stable analog output: ±8 VDC (single-ended) / ±16 VDC (differential)
  • Long cable capability: drives cables over 1000 m

Versions (quick selection guide)

  • 711-2A(4X) – High-Gain: ±0.46°, resolution <1 µrad
  • 711-2B(4X) – Mid-Range: ±4.0°, resolution 1 µrad
  • 711-2C(4X) – Wide-Angle: ±70°, resolution 10 µrad

Typical applications

Use the 711-2(4X) for high-accuracy tilt monitoring such as volcano monitoring, geotechnical engineering, bridge deflection monitoring, precision metrology, and radar platform leveling—especially where advanced weather protection is required.
