Abstract: An electrolytic tilt sensor is disclosed which comprises a containment envelope having a metallic container and a header, the envelope defining a chamber and having at least one pair of apertures, an electrolytic solution partially filling the chamber, and at least one pair of electrodes, each electrode including an electrically active, transverse portion positioned within the chamber in a general horizontal alignment with one another defining a tilt axis, and a lead portion extending to the exterior of the envelope through the respective aperture. The tilt sensor may further include a sealing material disposed in each aperture of the providing a substantial fluid-tight seal about the respective electrode.
