Model C901, C902 Tulip 4-20mA
*Specifications subject to change without notice on account of continued development
The model C901 and C902 Tulip Uniaxial
Clinometers deliver the same performance as
our model A900-series, but with 4-20mA
output. Units are available in horizontal (C901)
or vertical (C902) mounting packages. The Tulip
conveniently operates as a 2-wire 4-20mA
current loop, and also includes an on-board
thermistor for temperature measurement. Use
the Tulip with industrial PLC’s, platform position
and control, OEM assemblies, and all other
applications with 4-20mA output requirements.
