Note: The presence of the MID compliant DC meter is mandatory in some
countries. Do a check of the regulations that are applicable in the country
of installation.
3.7.9 Tilt sensors
The tilt sensor system disables the power from the incoming low voltage source
when a tilt sensor detects a tilt of a cabinet of the EVSE in any direction. The tilt
sensor is generally closed and opens when the tilt exceeds 10° in any direction, for
example if a vehicle impacts against the EVSE. In these situations, the undervoltage
release in the branch circuit breaker that supplies power to the EVSE is de-energized
and the branch circuit breaker opens.
The undervoltage release in the branch circuit breaker needs voltage input, to allow
the closure of the branch circuit breaker. The manufacturer recommends to use and
an uninterruptible power supply for the 24 V DC, to prevent tripping of the branch
circuit breaker.
The illustration shows the tilt sensors interface with the power distribution system
of the site. Please note that the shown branch circuit breaker, 24 V DC supply
delivered from an UPS, and all other components are not within the scope of ABB
E-Mobility, therefore are not provided in the EVSE.
The owner is responsible for considering a voltage drop on the 24 V DC circuit. The
owner must make sure that the undervoltage release of the branch circuit breaker
receives the correct input voltage according to the required specifications. Refer to
section 10.15.

) The tilt sensor has a contact that is closed when the tilt sensor is de-enenergized
and there is no tilt detected. When the contact is closed, the output is 20-24 V DC.
When the contact is open, the output is 0 V DC.
