inclinometer

A typical inclinometer from Kingmach combines a MEMS sensor element with a stainless steel housing rated to IP67. The probe body is machined to fit standard 70 mm and 85 mm casing, and the wheel assemblies are spring-loaded to maintain contact inside grooved pipes. Output options include RS485, 4–20 mA, and Modbus RTU, which simplifies connection to common dataloggers. Resolution down to 0.005° is achievable on many units, though exact performance depends on the range selected. For automated systems, the fixed-in-place chains can be built to length and daisy-chained for deep boreholes, with tilt data transmitted to a central gateway. Kingmach sees a lot of requests for inclinometers in harsh environments, so sealing and cable strain relief are given extra attention during assembly. The factory can also pre-configure sensors to match your reporting units and alarm thresholds before shipping. If you need a particular cable length or a connector type that’s common in your region, it’s usually a matter of specifying it on the order. Beyond the hardware, the team offers remote calibration guidance and can walk your technicians through initial setup over video call. For projects that require ongoing data management, we often recommend pairing the inclinometers with one of our cloud-enabled loggers.
