Data Sheet
Inclination position sensor
Type DST X710
For mobile hydraulic applications
The Danfoss DST X710 entry level Inclination
sensors are developed to ensure a robust and
high-performance solution for applications
such as agricultural- and construction
machines, as well as material handling
equipments. These sensors are typically used in
safety applications in order to keep the
inclination of a machine, or just a part of it, a
safety zone for working people, under control.
Danfoss DST X710 series uses contactless MEMS
technology for both single and dual axis with
measurement ranges up to 360°.
All sensors are designed for o-highway
applications and resistant to shock and
vibrations and with high electromagnetic
compatibility and comes with either analogue
or CANopen output.
Danfoss DST X710 is designed to be double
mounted with specic spacers in order to have
a full redundant space-saving version.

Functions
Zero function
Available for analog single circuit versions in DST X710
XY conguration (dual axis)
To activate the Autozero function make sure that:
• sensor is powered
• xing surface is free of dust or grease
• sensor is xed on the horizontal plane with suitable screws
ATTENTION:
The Autozero function can be dened within a maximum range of ±4.5° from the original zero position (factory set).
Hold the magnetic pen (accessory to order PKIT312) to the ZERO POINT indicated on the product label.
Hold the position for at least 3-5 seconds so that the operation is successful.
