G603 Intrinsically safe large angle tilt sensor

Reliable angle measurement in harsh and explosive environments. The G603 offers high precision, rugged design, and intrinsic safety for industrial applications.


Key features

  • ATEX and IECEx approved for gas/vapour
  • Wide measurement range up to ±80°
  • Rugged stainless steel construction
  • Non-contact inductive technology
  • High accuracy and long-term stability
  • Voltage or current output options

Performance highlights G603 Intrinsically safe large angle tilt sensor

The G603 tilt sensor provides accurate large-angle position feedback in environments where explosive gases or vapours may be present. With ±80° measurement range and advanced non-contact inductive technology, it delivers precise results even under extreme conditions.

Usage conditions

Designed for Zone 0, 20, and 21 applications, the G603 meets stringent safety and environmental requirements. It’s sealed to IP67 and operates across a wide temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Possible applications:

  • Underground mining vehicles
  • Hazardous industrial machinery
  • Offshore drilling platforms
  • Conveyor systems in explosive zones
  • Tank level monitoring in petrochemical environments

Advantages of choosing this product

The G603 eliminates the wear and maintenance concerns typical of potentiometric sensors by using non-contact technology. It also ensures peace of mind with global intrinsic safety approvals, making it a trusted choice for OEMs and engineers.

Other important features:

  • Available in voltage (0.5–4.5 V or 0.5–9.5 V) and current (4–20 mA) output
  • Custom angle range up to ±80° (standard 0–40°)
  • Stainless steel 316 body, anodised aluminium housing
  • Sealed to IP67 or optional IP68
