Miniature, Lightweight, Triaxial ICP® Accelerometer Family

Depew, NY -The Vibration Division of PCB Piezotronics, Inc., introduces a new family of 0.45 inch (11.4mm) cube shaped triaxial accelerometers that simultaneously measure vibration in three orthogonal directions. PCB Models 356A30, A31, A34, and A35, which cover a sensitivity range from 5 mV/g to 100 mV/g and corresponding measurement range of 1,000 g to 50 g peak, are all TEDS compatible. In addition, Models 356A30 and A31 use an 8-32, 4-pin mini, electrical connector, while the Models 356A34 and A35 use a traditional 1/4-28 4-pin connector with positive keyway, both of which achieve the convenience of a removable cable without risk of bent pins.

They are ideally suited to modal analysis of large rigid bodies, structural component testing, and general laboratory vibration work. This sensor family features built-in microelectronic signal conditioning circuitry which offers a low noise, low impedance output signal while permitting long distance signal transmission and simplicity of operation and is enclosed in a lightweight, hermetically sealed, titanium housing. The available TEDS (Transducer Electronic Data Sheet) option further simplifies set up of multiple sensor array testing. These durable designs are adhesive mounted, operate in -65 to +250 °F temperatures, and survive accidental shock inputs to 5000 g.
