1. A sensor adapted to detect and provide information related to tilted and non-tilted orientations, the sensor comprising:

  • a first flow-through port adapted to receive a first fluid flow; and

    a flow stopping member, wherein the flow stopping member is moveable between a first position and a second position, wherein, while the flow stopping member is in the first position, flow of the first fluid through the first flow-through port is measurably inhibited by the flow stopping member and an orientation of the sensor corresponds to a substantially non-tilted orientation.
