Description

The A2512 accelerometer has been designed for dynamic structural testing in tough field conditions where long cable lengths are required. These accurate, rugged, and fully-weatherproofed integrated MEMS sensors can be used from zero to medium frequency applications that require low noise and reliable long-term stability. Available in uni, bi, and tri-axial versions, each model can be installed very quickly and is available in ranges between ±2g and ±100g.

Applications

  • Cable force measurements
  • Structure vibration testing & monitoring
  • Earthquake monitoring/detection
  • Structure modal analysis
  • Vehicle dynamics
  • Impact detection
  • Long lead cable (up to 1,500 ft/460 m)

Feature

    • Completely reusable
    • Designed to exceed IP67
    • Nitrogen gas damped
    • High stability
    • Low power requirements
    • Various mounting options available
    • Industrial cable, custom lengths
    • N.I.S.T. traceable calibration available
    • 9-30 Vdc input voltage range
    • High differential output (±4.0 Vdc)
    • Responds down to 0 Hz
