Introducing the JMA-165 accelerometer series, the latest addition to Jewell Instruments’ RailStar and MEMS sensor lines. This is the industry’s first MEMS sensor to meet CENELEC/AREMA requirements for rail transportation. Utilizing MEMS capacitive technology, the JMA series is a cost-effective and viable alternative to traditional precision sensors for rail applications. It has ±0.5 G and ±1 G measuring…

Jewell Instruments is proud to present the A601-2 tiltmeter series as the latest installment to the electrolytic sensor family for geophysical and geotechnical applications. This new model replaces the 520M geodetic platform tiltmeter as a more cost-effective option, but without sacrificing much precision. The dual-axis sensor has the advantage of built-in micrometer leveling legs for easy installation on…

ALTHEN, a German-based manufacturers’ representative, will now be carrying the sensors and controls products of Jewell Instruments throughout central Europe. The company was signed in late October and will pick up the force-balanced, MEMS, and electrolytic sensor lines. ALTHEN’s office is located in Kelkheim, outside of Frankfurt and its sales region covers all of Germany,…

Jewell’s force-balanced quartz flexure offering has been expanded with the addition of the QFA-150 standard accelerometer. The QFA-150 uses mid-temperature range quartz technology that provides high accuracy, repeatability, and stability for demanding environments. These sensors are complete with a built-in self-test system and the versatility of round or square mounting flanges. The small and compact design…

Jewell Instruments is proud to unveil the RMIW Emerald series inclinometer family as the newest member of its force-balanced tilt line. The single-axis sensor presents the advantage of several mounting and electrical output options in addition to a round compact footprint. It is also a low-cost solution with high-quality force-balanced technology giving it higher precision than…

Jewell Instruments is proud to introduce the LSOX inclinometer family, adding to its precision force balanced tiltmeter product line and including its first CE marked device. This single-axis sensor family combines the high accuracy of force-balanced technology with the ruggedness to withstand the demanding conditions of a multitude of markets. Units are available with a 6-pin…

Jewell Instruments is proud to introduce ten new families of low-cost MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) inclinometers. They are the latest additions to Jewell’s quality line of high-performance electronic tiltmeters. Models span from 0.01° to temperature compensated 0.0008° resolution, allowing customers to match price to performance across a broad range of applications.  These low-cost sensors utilize chip-based…

Jewell Instruments is thrilled to introduce the new AMA and DMA series MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) accelerometers. They are the latest additions to Jewell’s quality product line of high performance and accuracy for inertial applications. These low-cost sensors utilize chip-based technology, consisting of a suspended mass between two capacitive plates, to cover a broad range of movement (±1g to…

Jewell Instruments is pleased to introduce the Model SMI-L 4-20mA Forced Balance Inclinometer. This powerful single-axis tilt sensor offers the same high performance and low cost as our standard Emerald Series, but with a convenient 4-20mA output. Units operate as a 3-wire current loop (Power, Return, Signal) for use with any 4-20mA PLC or data…
