Model MD908 “IRIS” Tilt Switch

The IRIS Tilt Switch and Controller powerful tilt
control device with advanced firmware features. The
on-board electrolytic tilt sensor is sensitive to
<0.002°. User programmable settings include AUTO-
zero (tare), sample averaging, hysteresis control, and
more. Units support RS232 and RS422 (RS485 full
duplex) output. The IRIS also supports a variety of
output protocols including Trimble TCM, NMEA XDR,
BAE, and Ashtech Compatible. Units ship standard
with 24-in. hook-up cable. Use the IRIS for industrial
pitch and roll measurement, platform leveling,
specialized OEM assemblies, scientific instrument
packages and more.
