6DF-1N6-C2-HWL - 6DF (Six Degrees of Freedom) Series Inertial Measurement Unit, 6-D Motion Variant, 6 g accelerometer || 6DF-1N6-C2-HWL - Quad Industry GmbH

Features

• Designed to Six Sigma standards: Six Sigma standards provide the highest level of product quality, performance, and consistency. Six Sigma provides confidence that the IMU will perform to specification. Some competitive products may be produced to much lower Sigma tolerances, which may result in some products not performing to the specification in some conditions
• Industry-leading durability:
  • Aluminum housing protects device from damage due to stones, dust, dirt, pressure washing, and humidity, allowing for use in harsh and outdoor environments
  • Corrosion-resistance minimizes susceptibility to deterioration often experienced in saltwater environments
  • Compatible with chemicals such as diesel fuel, hydraulic oil, gas/ethylene glycol, brake fluids, urea, liquid lime, NPK fertilizer, ammonia hydroxide, and alkaline degreasers
  • IP67 and IP69k ratings provide resistance to weather
  • Wide operating temperature range withstands most thermal extremes, preventing package breakage
  • EMI (electromagnetic interference) and EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) rating protects device from environmental radio frequencies
  • Reduces replacement and downtime due to broken parts, temperature incompatibilities, EMC and EMI, and exposure to chemicals
• Industry-leading accuracy: Provides highly accurate 6-dimensional rotation and acceleration outputs due to the IMU's industry-leading durable packaging, industry-leading stability, temperature compensation, software filtering and design, and automotive-grade Six Sigma testing requirements
• Eases integration:
  • SAEJ1939 CAN 29 bit identifier communication output – the standard for the transportation segment – allows more data to be transmitted than an RS-485 output
  • IP67 and IP69k ratings minimize the customer having to design a weather-resistant packaging around the IMU, allowing for a wide range of use in the application
  • Wide voltage range (7 V to 32 V) minimizes the need for a voltage converter
  • Deutsch connector, common in transportation applications, simplifies the customer's supply chain and reduces design complexity
  • Chemical compatibility minimizes the OEM having to expose the device to the substances
• 6-dimensional motion sensing: Senses 3-D motion in the forward/backward, up/down, and left/right accelerations combined with rotation about three perpendicular axes (pitch, yaw, roll):
  • Provides key equipment operating data for automated steering and control
  • Frees the operator to focus on equipment functions
  • Enables precise control which otherwise cannot be achieved with the human eye alone
  • Increases accuracy
  • Increases safety
  • Increases stability
  • Increases operator productivity
• Industry-leading voltage input flexibility (7 V to 32 V):
  • Allows customers with multiple product lines the ability to purchase only one catalog listing instead of multiple listings
  • Allows the IMU to accommodate voltage fluctuation within the vehicle/device
  • Provides reverse polarity protection in case the end customer accidentally reverses the red and black battery voltage wires
• Industry-leading application expertise: Honeywell application engineers are available to provide assistance to customers to help troubleshoot unforeseen communication protocol data, helping to optimize the customers' system performance, additionally, Honeywell application engineers are available to answer design questions during the development, launch, and production of the customer's product
• Industry-leading customization: For transportation applications with high volumes over 500 units per year, Honeywell will consider offering customers a choice of any CAN protocol, acceleration range up to ±6 g, rotation rates up to ±75 °/s, inclination angles up to ±50° and a sensor update rate from 1 Hz to 100 Hz:
  • Allows customers to customize the IMU so that it readily fits into existing vehicle protocol architecture
  • Allows customers the ability to make custom protocol inclusions into the IMU quickly and easily
  • Allows fast customer development turnaround with expert engineering support
  • No customization for aerospace and military ITAR-applicable applications
• Automotive-grade qualified: Certified to operate in automotive-grade environments due to:
  • Temperature compensated to operate from -40 °C to 85 °C [-40 °F to 185 °F]
  • Meets EMC and EMI requirements
  • Meets ESD (electrostatic discharge) requirements
  • Chemical compatibility (e.g., diesel, hydraulic oil, gas/ethylene glycol, brake fluid, urea, liquid lime, NPK fertilizer, ammonia hydroxide, and alkaline degreaser)
• Industry-leading temperature performance: A temperature sensor is placed within each rotation rate sensor within the IMU:
  • Provides a temperature value to the processing module where the data samples are filtered and compensated
  • Allows the customer's system to perform over a wide temperature range
• Long-term stability: Even after long-term use and thermal extremes, these sensors offer customers enhanced long-term stability:
  • Minimizes system calibration needs
  • Maximizes system performance
  • Helps support system uptime by eliminating the need to service or replace the sensor during its application life
• No calibration needed: Large batches of the IMU are calibrated to a flat surface, providing calibration consistency between units and eliminating the customer's need to calibrate the IMU
• Industry-standard SAEJ1939 CAN: Provides easy-to-integrate, cost-effective, high-integrity serial data communications bus for real-time control applications, allowing enhanced error detection
• Test to mechanical shock, thermal shock, and random vibration: Provides the customer with durability in tough environments
