New High Sensitivity, Triaxial DC Response Accelerometer |
|
September 8, 2006, Depew, NY, USA – The Vibration division of PCB Piezotronics (PCB®) has announced new Series
3713, a high sensitivity, MEMS DC (steady state) response accelerometer, capable of measuring accelerations in a variety of
automotive and off-highway testing applications. PCB’s Series 3713 is gas damped, and provides micro g resolution and ±5,000 g pk (49,033 m/s2 pk) shock survivability. Several full-scale acceleration ranges are available, from 3 to 200 g, with a frequency response from DC to 1,500 Hz (±10%). The sensor incorporates built-in conditioning electronics that provide amplification to the sensing elements and temperature compensated output. The footprint for Series 3713 is a 1-inch (28 mm) cube in a welded titanium case design, with a choice of either hermetic connector or integral cable. The accelerometer is well-suited for applications such as brake deceleration compliance certification; durability testing of vehicle radiators and air coolers; roll stiffness/static rollover threshold tests; vehicle and component test chamber instrumentation; and NVH and multi-axis motion test platforms. Any vibration sensing application requiring DC acceleration, high resolution, and high sensitivity, yet able to survive high g events, will benefit from this new accelerometer.
