3X.SA

3X.SA is a single-axis angle sensor for 0–360° measurement in vertical mounting. With 0.01° resolution, ±0.1° accuracy and CANopen output, it is designed for turret rotation, boom angle and slew axis monitoring applications. IP67 protected stainless aluminum enclosure suits harsh field conditions.

Key Specifications

  • Single-axis (Z) angle measurement in vertical position: 0–360°
  • Range configurable as 0–360° or -180° .. +180° via CAN
  • Angle resolution 0.01° (adjustable to 0.1° via CAN)
  • Accuracy ±0.1°
  • Measurement direction clockwise/counter-clockwise via CAN
  • Moving average and Kalman filter
  • CANopen; adjustable Node-ID and baud rate
  • 8–35 V DC supply, IP67, -40 °C to +85 °C
  • Optional redundant configuration

Technical Details

3X.SA is the vertical single-axis angle sensor in the Avioni 3X family. It measures rotation angle (0–360°) only, without X-Y tilt. It offers a more focused, compact solution than 3X.MA or 3X.DA for applications requiring turret rotation, slew angle, boom rotation or vertical-axis angle monitoring.

Single-Axis Angle Measurement (Z)

3X.SA provides 0–360° single-axis angle measurement in vertical mounting. Range configurable as 0–360° or -180° .. +180° via CAN. Direction clockwise or counter-clockwise. Resolution 0.01° (0.00° – 359.99°), reducible to 0.1° via CAN. Accuracy ±0.1°.

Signal Processing and Filtering

Moving average and Kalman filters against vibration, wind and mechanical play. Stable, repeatable angle data to ECU, HMI or LMI software; minimises false limit triggers.

CANopen Communication

Node-ID 1–127 (default: 1). Baud rate 20 kbps – 1 Mbps (default: 250 kbps). Message period 10–1000 ms (default: 100 ms). Heartbeat 0x700 + Node-ID. Optional redundancy for safety-critical use.

Mechanical and Electrical Features

Stainless aluminum housing with polyurethane fill. IP67. -40 °C to +85 °C. 8–35 V DC with full protection. M12 4 or 5-pin connector.

3X Product Family

3X.SA: vertical single-axis angle only. 3X.DA: horizontal dual-axis tilt only. 3X.MA: both combined. 3X.SA is ideal when only rotation/angle monitoring is needed.

System Integration

Integrates with Avioni ECUs, HMIs and LMI software. Can form the angle component of complete LMI with ALX draw-wire sensors (with integrated angle) or PL1000 load cells. Commissioning via Javelin Suite.

Typical Applications

• Turret/slew angle on mobile cranes
• Rotation axis measurement on aerial platforms
• Boom rotation and angle limit control
• Angle component in LMI systems
• Compact installations requiring single-axis rotation monitoring
