Model Variations

AF/50/5, AF/100/10

The AF/50/5 Impedance head integrates an IEPE accelerometer and force sensor into one device to measure dynamic acceleration and force simultaneously.

The AF/50/5 impedance head is manufactured in stainless steel, has a mass of 30 grams and an operating temperature range of -40 to +121°C (-40 to +249°F). IEPE sensitivity is 5mV/N for measuring force and 50mV/g for acceleration.

With a low impedance voltage mode and an effective anti-jamming facility the AF impedance head is ideal for use in modal and structural analysis. It can be attached to an input stinger that is itself driven by a modal shaker and also attached to the test structure via the two M5 tapped mounting holes. The use of IEPE sensors provides accurate measurement of applied forces over a wide bandwidth providing extensive excitation range for Modal testing, unlike other strain gauge sensors which are used for static and quasistatic environments.
