(1) Technical characteristics are referred to ±10° measuring range


(2) Sensitivity is a specific parameter different for every gauge. The sensitivity is calculated during gauge calibration test and inserted into the Calibration
Report.
(3) MPE is the MaximumPermitted Error on the measuring range (FSR). In the Calibration Report, the accuracies of the gauge are calculated using both linear
regression (≤ Lin. MPE) and polynomial correction (≤ Pol. MPE)
(4) Stability calculated as difference after a 24 h period under repeatability conditions (ISO18674-3).
(5) These sensors are installed on the internal electronic board for sensor diagnostics.
(6) RS485 not-optoisolated Modbus communication with RTU Protocol. Legacy mode is not supported by this instrument Default output is sen α, other units
available are degree, mm/mand inch/feet (to be requested at order).
(7) Faster reading are available under request, but the performance of the system will be lower due to the increment of noises.
