Sensor+Test 2019
Position determination and digital acceleration sensors
At Sensor+Test 2019, ASC will be presenting a digital sensor from the new Disens product line. It records measurement data with high accuracy and eliminates the need for external data acquisition. Other highlights will include the new ASC IMU 8 for very precise positioning and the ASC TSF-360 digital tilt sensor with 360° measuring range.
Whether in track monitoring, in the navigation of drones, ships and robots or for creating map material (mobile mapping): The new IMU 8 from ASC can be used for a wide range of applications. Thanks to a bias stability of 0.12°/hr and an angular random walk of 0.017°/ √Hz, the inertial measurement unit is ideally suited for high-precision positioning in numerous applications. The IMU's capacitive MEMS accelerometer is available with measuring ranges from ±2g to ±30g, offers an amplitude deviation of less than 0.5% FSO and a signal noise of 7µg/√Hz at ±2g measuring range.
The new digital acceleration sensors ASC Disens MD-002 and ASC Disens MD-008 will also be on display at the trade fair stand. When using these triaxial sensors, external measurement data acquisition is no longer necessary as the analog input signals are already converted into digital output signals in the sensor. The sensors work with measuring ranges of ±2g and ±8g and enable highly accurate measurements thanks to a low noise density of just 25mg/ÖHz. Both sensors are particularly suitable for monitoring seismic activities as well as for bridge and building monitoring.
The ASC DiSens MD-002 or MD-008 includes a full license for the DeweSoft X3 software package, which makes daily testing and measurement work easier. For example, the user can easily add new applications with the help of the software without having to invest in additional hardware. A single piece of software therefore meets all requirements, from recording and analysis to reporting measurement data. The learning curve for familiarization is low.
With the ASC TSF-360 digital tilt sensor, ASC is introducing another sensor solution: In contrast to conventional sensors of this type, the TSF-360 offers a measuring range of 360 degrees. It also has a high resolution of 0.01°, a measuring accuracy of 0.1° (at +10 to +40 °C), a measuring rate of 150 ms and a data transfer rate of 250 kbit/s. Due to the fluidic, capacitive measuring principle, the ASC TSF-360 also has a lower lateral tilt sensitivity than MEMS-based inclination sensors.
Numerous industries can use the new sensor, such as the automotive industry, shipping, aviation, mechanical engineering, construction and the solar industry. ASC supplies the sensor in an anodized aluminium housing (IP67) with a digital CAN/CANopen interface. as
