March 31, 2022

AutomationDirect has added Gefran inclination sensors to their growing lineup of position transducers. Gefran sensors use cutting-edge MEMS technology (micro-electromechanical devices integrated onto a single silicon chip) to provide reliable and precise tilt angle measurement with respect to gravity.

The Gefran sensors are rugged and suitable for the harshest environments. They come in an encapsulated, thermoplastic housing with a high IP67/69K rating and are available with an integrated cable or M12 quick-disconnect; M12 quick-disconnect models are fully redundant, having two sensors in one housing.

Gefran inclination sensors start at $189.00, are CE marked and RoHs compliant, and come with a 3-year warranty.
