Baumer launches the new GIM600R inclinometer

In vehicles such as aerial work channels, loading cranes and forklift trucks, an inclinometer can be considered an essential device that ensures the safe operation of large mobile equipment and effectively guarantees stability during operation. Today, Baumer has added GIM600R to its inclinometer series, which further expands its product portfolio of sensor solutions for mobile and off-highway machinery.

Innovative design and durability

01. the new GIM600R is a sensor specially developed to cope with the harsh working conditions of mobile machinery, in line with the latest safety standards (ISO 13849-1:2023), which can ensure high-precision measurement together with high consolidation.

02. this inclinometer can simplify the machine design with high accuracy and high temperature stability, greatly expanding the scale of operation. In addition, the GIM600R also meets the PLd specifications, can be used for construction vehicles in static mode, the stability of its control to provide reliable measurement, and then improve the function of construction vehicles, significantly reducing the equipment downtime.

03. GIM600R is well designed and has passed a number of particularly demanding tests, showing excellent durability. First of all, the GIM600R has a protection rating of up to IP69K and corrosion resistance up to CX specifications. In addition, it is capable of working in virtually any environment, and is unaffected by problems such as shock, vibration, dust, dirt and salt spray.

04. GIM600R also uses a compact housing and redundancy type specification interface (CANopen and SAEJ1939), can be easily integrated into existing equipment.

05. with the free Baumer Sensor Suite (BSS) software, users can parameterize the GIM600R directly on the dashboard, and then greatly shorten the commissioning time of the equipment.

Rich mobile machinery solutions

Wide range of use prospects

The presentation of GIM600R improves the functionality of Baumer's inclinometer family of products, the existing GIM140R or GIM500R, with updated safety specifications, as well as higher functionality, and also further completes Baumer's product portfolio of safety specification-consolidated sensor solutions.

It includes high-function encoders, wire pull encoders, pressure sensors, strain sensors and inclinometers, and the launch of GIM600R proves once again that Baumer, with its strong strength of innovation and rich experience in use, can invent considerable added value for customers.

Along with China's new round of infrastructure renovation and upgrading, as well as the upgrading and replacement of engineering vehicles, the inclinometer family of products, including Baumer GIM600R, will also have a broader prospect of use.
