To sense shock, vibration, and/or linear motion, accelerometers are beginning to appear in a broad range of new applications. Common types of accelerometers for these applications�various ...

How do piezoelectric accelerometers — vibration sensors — work? The force caused by vibration or a change in motion (acceleration) causes the sensor's mass to “squeeze” contained piezoelectric ...

Meggitt Sensing Systems has made available its Endevco model 2280, a hermetically sealed, triaxial, piezoelectric charge output accelerometer with high-temperature operation to 482 degrees C (900 ...

Meggitt Sensing Systems introduced the Endevco model 6240M10, a hermetically sealed high-temperature piezoelectric charge output accelerometer with continuous operation to +649°C (+1200°F), and ...

Anyone who has performed vibration tests is familiar with accelerometers, which are positioned on the EUT to measure the acceleration relative to the shaker and, most importantly, to find resonances.

November 24, 2010, San Juan Capistrano, California, USA – Meggitt Sensing Systems, a Meggitt group division, has announced the re-launch of Endevco® model 2771C-XX, an ultra-low noise remote charge ...

Sensors come with top or side-exit electrical connectors, and in a variety of hermetically sealed enclosures. High-temperature versions operate up to 900°F (482°C), with a ±500-g pk measurement range, ...

One of the most common transducers used in automotive tests is the accelerometer; it measures forces as well as the amount of vibration experienced by components and systems. Like all things analog, ...
