Dis Sensors

Over the course of 30 years, DIS Sensors has built up a reputation in the field of high quality sensor technology. We develop, produce and sell sensors for various applications from our headquarters in Soest, the Netherlands. We value innovation and know-how above all else. The result: high-quality products and solutions from DIS Sensors to serve the global market.

Product range
We offer a wide range of sensors for measuring inclination and acceleration as well as rotary encoders. DIS Sensors has an excellent reputation in the field of customised solutions and we are proud to be your partner in innovation. Because we work with a network of carefully selected suppliers, we can also produce wide ranges at highly competitive prices.

Inclination sensors
The QG series of inclination sensors measures angles in 1 or 2 axes. These products are based on robust MEMS technology, in which capacitance differences can be converted into an analogue voltage within a micro-mechanical sensor chip. This analogue voltage is proportional to the angle to which the sensor is exposed. The modular design makes it easy to adapt the sensors to specific requirements.

Acceleration sensors
The QG series of acceleration sensors measure acceleration in 1, 2 or 3 axes. These products are based on robust MEMS technology, in which capacitance differences can be converted into an analogue voltage within a micro-mechanical sensor chip. This analogue voltage is proportional to the acceleration to which the sensor is exposed. The modular design makes it easy to adapt the sensors to specific requirements. The housing is available in metal (aluminium and stainless steel), as well as in plastic. Our acceleration sensors have a higher bandwidth than inclination sensors so they can measure faster movements with very high accuracy.

Tilt switches
A tilt switch is a type of switch that switches at a certain angle as compared to the horizon (similar to the old mercury switch). It is in fact an inclinometer with a switching output. Since gravity serves as a reference maximum mounting freedom is achieved. Our yilt switches are based on MEMS technology and intelligent microcontroller algorithms. As a result, single or twin axis switches can be implemented with any desired switching angle. The output can be NPN or PNP. A SIL1 / PLc tilt switch for safety applications completes the portfolio. An optional configurator is available to configure the switch (angles, delay times, filtering).

Rotary encoders
The QR series of rotary encoders enable contact-free measurement of an angular displacement from 0° to 360° without a mechanical stop. Two types of housing are available. The QR30 housing, where the sensor and magnet are mounted separately from each other, and the QR40 housing, where the magnet is integrated into the rotating shaft in the housing.

DIS makes sense.
