SW-520D SW520D Angle Sensor Module Ball Switch tilt Sensor Module 3-pin

SW-520D SW520D Angle Sensor Module Ball Switch tilt Sensor Module 3-pin , or Tilt Angle Switch sensor Module, is a module used for measuring the tilt of an object in multiple axes with reference to an absolute level plane.

SW-520D SW520D Angle Sensor Module Ball Switch tilt Sensor Module 3-pin is a component that can detect the tilting of an object. However it is only the equivalent to a pushbutton activated through a different physical mechanism.

This type of sensor is the environmental-friendly version of a mercury-switch. It contains a metallic ball inside that will commute the two pins of the device from on to off and vice versa if the sensor reaches a certain angle.

The tilt sensor module is equipped with a tilt sensor and a potentiometer. You may attach it to any object and it will determine whether the object is tilted or not. It is simple as it returns a digital output. It uses SW-460D or SW520D tilt sensor. This tilt sensor is a ball rolling type, NOT the Mercury type.

It comes with a M3 mounting hole for ease of attaching it to any object. A power LED and a status LED attached to the module for visual indicator.

This module will output logic LOW when the sensor is tilted below the threshold angle; logic HIGH when it is tilted above the threshold angle.

The threshold angle ranges from 45 degree to 130 degree. Aside from threshold angle, angular velocity also affect the tilt module. It can also be used as a vibration sensor, too!

This SW520D Tilt Sensor module can be interfaced with any microcontroller with digital input such as PIC, SK40C, SK28A, Skds40A, Arduino series for tilt detection capability.

Also, not to forget, interfacing the module with a Relay module forms a tilt switch.
