The Industrial-Grade GY-25Z Inclinometer is a robust 6-axis motion tracking sensor module designed for demanding angle measurement and motion detection applications. It integrates a powerful MPU6050 (or compatible) sensor with onboard processing logic, providing highly stabilized pitch and roll angles directly via both UART (Serial) and I2C communication interfaces. This module is engineered for reliability in challenging industrial environments.
Product Description
The GY-25Z Industrial-Grade Inclinometer elevates standard motion sensing to a professional level. While consumer-grade modules output raw data that requires significant host processing, the GY-25Z handles all complex sensor fusion, filtering, and drift compensation internally using its integrated Digital Motion Processor (DMP). It delivers clean, ready-to-use pitch and roll angle data in degrees directly to your control system via serial (UART) or I2C communication protocols.
This module is constructed with high-quality components designed for durability and consistent performance within industrial operating temperature ranges. It eliminates common issues like signal noise and long-term drift that plague cheaper IMUs. The 3.3V to 5V wide operating range and standard mounting options ensure easy integration into existing industrial control systems, robotics platforms, automated machinery, and structural monitoring equipment where reliability is non-negotiable.
Key Features
  • Industrial Reliability: Built for robust performance in demanding operating conditions.
  • Pre-processed Angle Data: Outputs stable Pitch and Roll angles in degrees, requiring minimal host controller processing.
  • Dual Communication Interfaces: Supports both UART (Serial TTL) and I2C protocols for versatile integration.
  • Integrated 6-Axis Sensing: Combines a 3-axis accelerometer and a 3-axis gyroscope.
  • Internal Sensor Fusion: Utilizes DMP technology to minimize drift and stabilize readings automatically.
  • Wide Voltage Compatibility: Onboard regulator supports operation from 3V to 5V DC power supplies.
  • High Precision: Offers fine resolution typically down to 0.01 degrees
Usage
The GY-25Z module provides essential orientation feedback for critical industrial applications:
  1. Platform Leveling: Automated leveling systems for scissor lifts, cranes, or satellite dishes.
  2. Industrial Robotics: Precise angle feedback for robotic arms and automated guided vehicles (AGVs).
  3. Structural Monitoring: Measuring tilt and vibration in infrastructure or machinery.
  4. Heavy Machinery Control: Ensuring safe operating angles for construction equipment.
Integration Steps:
  • Connect VCC (3-5V) and GND to your power supply.
  • Select the required communication protocol (UART or I2C) via module configuration (check datasheet for specifics).
  • Connect the appropriate data pins to your industrial controller or PC interface.
  • Read the digitally formatted angle data packets via the chosen interface
Q: How does the "Industrial-Grade" version differ from standard hobbyist MPU6050 modules?

This version is typically built with more durable components (e.g., specific capacitors, wider temperature range ICs) and focuses purely on outputting stable, pre-processed angle data with minimal drift, which is necessary for reliable business/industrial use.

Q: Can I get raw accelerometer data from this module?

No, this module’s firmware is designed only to output the calculated Pitch and Roll angles. For raw data access, use a standard MPU-6050 breakout board.

Q: Is the data output stable, or does it drift over time?

The primary function of the onboard processor is to run sensor fusion algorithms that actively correct for gyroscope drift using gravity references from the accelerometer, providing highly stable output.

Q: Do I need a logic level shifter for 5V systems?

No, the module is designed to be compatible with both 3.3V and 5V power and logic levels directly.

Q: Is this suitable for measuring very fast movements?

It is excellent for measuring stable angles and general motion tracking. The 100 Hz update rate is sufficient for most automation and robotics tasks, but extreme high-frequency vibration analysis might require specialized hardware
