- Supply voltage 18 … 30 VDC
- Output: 2 potential-free switching contacts (max. 30VDC/0,5A)
About the NSS1-IP tilt monitoring system
The industrial single-axis NSS1-IP system for monitoring tilt angle combines a non-contact tilt sensor with sensor-matched electronics. It provides precise tilt monitoring on the X axis and is designed for side-wall mounting. Depending on the version, the monitored tilt range is ±3° to ±60° or 0…90°. Using potentiometers (visible after opening the housing cover), the limit switching points can be freely set across the entire measurement range. The relays feature potential-free contacts with a maximum switching rating of 30 VDC / 0.5 A.
The tilt switch system is housed in a rugged EMC die-cast aluminum enclosure (IP66), making it ideal for harsh industrial environments.
