Accelerometer calibration

Image

DJB Instruments has a purpose-built in-house calibration and measurement facility providing calibrations to traceable National Standards. 

We calibrate both charge and IEPE accelerometers as well as signal conditioning equipment for all manufacturers and recommend you do this annually, although many of our customers prefer every 6 months. 

Our standard calibration service includes a sweep from 10Hz to 10kHz (or upper limit of accelerometer if less than 10kHz) at controlled ambient conditions, we also include a cross-axis check (this is rarely checked by other labs) 

We can also offer calibration in more extreme environments; extended sweeps from 2Hz to 15kHz, high temperature and high pressure

Accelerometers can last for decades if treated properly, however, regular calibration is important, and things can change with age. This is your opportunity to check the accelerometer for correct operation and to ensure it has suffered no damage in its day-to-day handling and use. Critical points to check are "cross-axis error" which should be less than 5%. This is not always checked by other calibration facilities and is the biggest source of error in older accelerometers. 

Other points to consider at calibration are temperature and frequency range. Ensure the calibration results reflect the operating range of your application, if in doubt ask our engineers to explain the details regarding calibration. 

Our calibration service is usually between 1 to 3 days. Please contact us for a quotation and a turnaround time.

Bespoke cable assembly service

At DJB, we specialise in providing custom cable assembly solutions tailored to your needs. Our wide range of cables starts from just 0.8mm in diameter, including low noise and armoured options, designed to suit a variety of applications. 

We offer a comprehensive selection of connectors, both manufactured in-house and available off-the-shelf. Thanks to our strong relationships with trusted cable manufacturers, we are well-positioned to accommodate any special requests you may have.

Additional services 

Accelerometer Trade-In Scheme

Upgrade your equipment with our accelerometer trade-in scheme! Trade in any old accelerometer for a discount on a brand-new DJB model. It’s a cost-effective way to restore your testing capabilities with high-performance, reliable accelerometers.

Free cable inspection

Take advantage of our free cable inspection service! Send up to 20 cables for a thorough assessment, and we will provide a detailed report on the health of your cables. This helps you make informed decisions about your equipment and ensures optimal performance.

Cable Repair Service

Save money and help the environment with our cable repair service. We can repair cables from most manufacturers, breathing new life into your existing equipment. Our free cable inspection ensures transparency throughout the process, keeping you updated every step of the way.

Are you confident that your current cables are performing at their best without compromising the quality of your data? With our free inspection service, you can rest assured that your cables are functioning optimally, supporting peak performance in your testing and measurement activities.

Sustainable solutions for your testing equipment

We are proud to lead the way with our green approach to cable recycling. Over time, users often accumulate broken or damaged cables but feel compelled to buy new ones due to other suppliers' refusal to offer repair services. At DJB, we believe in a more sustainable solution.

As most connectors (such as 10-32UNF microdot, BNC, etc.) are standardized, DJB can provide a test and repair service for nearly any cable from any supplier. Many cable failures are caused by damage or wear to connectors. By simply removing and refitting a new connector, your cable is restored to full functionality at a fraction of the cost—with minimal reduction in usable cable length.

Did you know? The jacket and insulator of most signal cables are often made from PTFE, a material that can be toxic during decomposition. Repairing your cables is a kinder, more environmentally friendly option.

Our in-house cable repair service ensures your readings remain accurate, and each cable you use has a clean bill of health. Don’t forget to take advantage of our free cable inspection scheme. It’s the perfect way to assess the health of your cables and determine the best path forward.
