Highlights

Accurate ATD Positioning

A high-performance 3-axis accelerometer provides precise and repeatable tilt measurements, helping engineers achieve consistent ATD setup and positioning prior to testing.

Real-Time Setup Feedback

Tilt Control Software delivers immediate visual feedback during test preparation, enabling fast and accurate positioning adjustments before arming a test.

Seamless SLICE6 Integration

Designed specifically for DTS SLICE6 systems, the Tilt Sensor 4.0 integrates directly with existing hardware and software workflows without additional complexity.

Compact and Rugged Design

Measuring just 25 x 12 x 8 mm and weighing only 7 grams, the sensor delivers reliable performance in space-constrained installations while withstanding shocks up to 500 g.

Applications

Tilt Sensor 4.0 provides accurate angular positioning measurements for test setup, validation, and documentation workflows. Real-time feedback and automated tilt value storage help improve setup consistency, reduce repeat testing, and increase confidence in test readiness. Designed for dynamic testing environments, the sensor combines precision measurement with seamless integration into DTS data acquisition systems.

The following testing activities align with DTS application areas where Tilt Sensor 4.0 supports accurate positioning, setup verification, and test documentation:
