About the D802 “Deepwater”
– digital, submersible tiltmeter for offshore and deep-ocean applications (RS232/RS422, up to 2,500 m)
The D802 Deepwater is a high-precision, submersible digital tiltmeter designed for marine, offshore, and deep-ocean deployments. It uses an absolute, gravity-referenced electrolytic sensor, delivering very high accuracy with virtually zero long-term drift. High-gain versions achieve sensitivity down to < 0.0017 mm/m (or better).
For integration into measurement and monitoring systems, the D802 supports RS232 or RS422. Its housing is engineered for underwater use and is watertight down to 2,500 m (IP68)—ideal for long-term stable measurements in demanding environments.
