Dial Type Clinometer — IMPA 370241

A dial type clinometer is a vital navigation and safety instrument used on board cargo ships, container vessels, tankers, bulk carriers, and offshore support vessels to monitor heel and trim. Mounted on the bridge, in the engine control room, or at the cargo control station, it provides continuous, direct readings of list and pitch angles so the crew can maintain stability, ensure safe cargo operations, and comply with load line and stability requirements. Unlike liquid-filled or bubble levels, this mechanical clinometer delivers reliable performance in harsh marine conditions without the risk of freezing or fluid leakage.

The instrument features a -50° to +50° measuring range with a tolerance of ±1.5°, a 124 mm (5 inch) dial, and a 180 mm (7 inch) base. Its low-friction movement is designed to withstand direct sunlight and wide temperature variations, requiring no lubrication or damping fluid that could cause sluggish response or jamming in cold weather. The rugged housing and precision mechanism make it suitable for permanent installation on bulkheads or columns. For accurate readings, it must be carefully aligned with the vessel's horizontal or vertical reference lines. A black grub screw on the rear of the movement locks the mechanism during transport; simply loosen and remove it with a small screwdriver to activate the clinometer. Never apply oil or grease to the instrument, as this can lead to sticking at low temperatures.
