Torque servo system sensors
Feteris Components inclinometers are extremely sensitive sensors that measure horizontal angle or vertical deviation with virtually infinite resolution. Most designs are rugged enough to withstand severe shock and vibration -- while others include additional ruggedness to make them "all weather" instruments.
Feteris Components units are fully self-contained (closed loop system). They connect to a DC power source and a readout or control device for a complete operating system. The high-level DC output signal is proportional to the sine of the angle of tilt from as little as +/–1° full range to +/–90° full range. They respond to changes of slope as small as 0.1 second of arc. Fluid filled units have hystersis less that 0.0005% of full range output, and vibration rectification is less than 10 arc seconds/g2.
LFC-196 Series
The LCF-196 Series meets the needs of high accuracy applications where high levels of shock and vibration are present. The LCF employs a fluid damped torsion
flexure suspension that attenuates input energy to provide repeatability at low frequencies. The LCF-196 is a two-axis unit housed in a 22mm diameter cylindrical package.
LCF 2000/3000
The LCF 2000 / 3000 Series is a two or three axis version of the rugged, high accuracy LCF Series. It is available with a wide range sof options including single ended
input power, internal temperature sensor and 4-20mA output.
LCI Series
The LCI Series meets the needs of high accuracy applications with low shock and vibration such as those found in laboratories. The LCI employs a torsion flexure suspension
that offers superior repeatability and low hysteresis at low frequencies.
LCI-360 Series
The LCI-360 is a biaxial unit that meets the needs of high accuracy applications with low shock and vibration. The LCI employs a torsion flexure suspension that
offers superior repeatability and low hysteresis at low frequencies.
LSO Series
The LSO Series is our most rugged general-purpose inclinometer. Our LSO inertial sensors meet the needs of a variety of commercial and industrial applications. They offer
precise readings with high outputs at lower range frequencies. We machine each housing from solid aluminum making the LSO ideal for "all weather" applications.
LSR Series
The LSR Series meets the needs of applications with space constraints. The compact, cylindrical shape and the "stacking" feature of the LSR facilitate the use of several
inclinometers when multi-axis measurement is required. The LSR offers the same precise readings with high outputs at lower range frequencies as our LSO Series.
AIR-1000 Series
The AIR-1000 Series is a microprocessor based panel meter designed to take the output from gravity referenced inclinometers and display it as an angle.
The compact unit provides the +/-15VDC sensor excitation, conditions the inclinometer output and displays the angle down to 0.001 °. An RS232 output is provided
for interfacing to a computer, PLC or printer. Bezel and scratch resistant lenses are sealed to meet requirements of NEMA 4 and a gasket is supplied to seal the unit
to a panel.

Ceramic based sensors
With the precision inclinometers the customer gets a complete calibrated measurement system which can be used without being processed. Precision inclinometers distinguish by their large temperature range and they can also be used outside because of their robust housing and the protection class IP 65.
Feteris Components offers two kinds of precision inclinometers. The low cost V-types are available with a voltage or a current output. The P-types steered by a microprocessor are also available with a digital output.
And there is another precision inclinometer belonging to this product line. Dependent on the angle and the internal defined threshold value, this precision inclinometer is able to start a gear shift.
