ASC TS-92V1/TS-92V5 Biaxial MEMS capacitive tilt sensor

Biaxial MEMS capacitive tilt sensors with high resolution, analog output, and IP67/IP68 protection for construction, transport and marine applications

Key features

Biaxial measurement with two independent MEMS sensors at 90°
Measuring ranges: ±15° and ±90°
Resolution: 0.005°
Excellent long-term bias stability (0.1°/year)
Low temperature coefficient of bias (0.02 °/°C)
Wide operating temperature range (−40 °C … +120 °C)
Shock resistance up to 5,000 g
Analog ±2 V output (standard), optional 4–20 mA output
Operates on +6 to +36 VDC

Performance highlights

The ASC TS-92V1 and TS-92V5 are biaxial MEMS capacitive tilt sensors designed for reliable inclination measurement in demanding environments. Both models measure tilt in two perpendicular axes using independent low-g MEMS accelerometers. This results in a resolution of 0.005° and long-term bias stability of 0.1° per year. The sensors output a nominal ±2 V swing for ±90° tilt, with linear response within ±15°.

Their robust design includes shock resistance up to 5,000 g, stable operation between −40 °C and +120 °C, and immunity to supply voltage fluctuations (6–36 VDC). An optional 4–20 mA current output is available for industrial control systems.

Usage conditions

The ASC TS-92V1 features a lightweight aluminium IP67 housing, making it suitable for mobile or weight-sensitive systems. The ASC TS-92V5, with its stainless steel IP68 housing, is designed for harsh environments such as marine or outdoor construction where full waterproof protection is required.

Applications

Crane safety systems
Building and construction machinery
Solar array tracking
Ship navigation and posture monitoring
Bridge flap and tilt monitoring
Track alignment and railway maintenance
Wheel alignment systems
Truck chassis levelling
Machine tool angle positioning

Advantages of choosing these sensors

The TS-92V1 and TS-92V5 provide engineers with flexibility: a lightweight aluminium model for compact setups, and a robust stainless steel model for outdoor and marine environments. Both combine high resolution, long-term stability and durable design, ensuring reliable tilt measurement across industries.
