High Sensitivity Piezoelectric Accelerometer - A/29

100pC/g nom.  ∙  45-50gm  ∙  -50°C to 250°C Max Temp

Model Variations

A/29, A/29/TC

The A/29 is a robust and highly sensitive lightweight accelerometer which is able to withstand high temperatures in excess of 250°C. This makes the A/29 is an ideal candidate for any application requiring high sensitivity measurements with very little margin for error.

Close tolerance 100pC/g normalized output accelerometers with ultra low strain induced error. Piezo-electric materials convert mechanical loading, however induced, to electrical charge.   The A/29 is specifically configured to minimize the effect of physical inputs other than acceleration, thus enhancing measurement integrity in situations where flexural strain of the transducer could give rise to significant errors. Accelerometers based around piezoelectric discs operating in d33 compression mode are particularly prone to this phenomenon, and typically have strain sensitivity 40dB greater than that of a strain A/29. High sensitivity Konic Shear® sensing element produces 100pC/g output from 46gm wt, transducer. Totally welded construction maximizes reliability.
