PowerBox PBS-Vario Climb Rate and Altitude Sensor
PowerBox PBS-Vario Climb Rate and Altitude Sensor
The PowerBox PBS-Vario is a highly precise climb rate and altitude sensor designed for use with the PowerBox CORE and other telemetry systems. It utilizes the latest MEMS pressure sensor technology to detect height differences as small as 10 cm, with a proprietary digital filter ensuring noise-free and distortion-free readings.
This compact unit measures just 33 x 10 x 4 mm and weighs only 6 grams, making it ideal for installation in even the smallest gliders. It supports PowerBox P²BUS, Jeti EX-Bus, and Futaba S.BUS2 telemetry systems, providing accurate climb rate, relative altitude, and temperature data.
