  • Zero temperature coefficient of damping ratio.
  • Integral temperature compensation.
  • DC input and DC output.
  • High reliability.
Benefits
  • Compact size and lightweight (40 grams).
  • Wide operating temperature range from -40°C to +105°C.
Applications
  • Data acquisition systems.
  • Road bed analysis.
  • Crash recorders.
  • Railways.
  • Simulators.
Electrical Connections
  • Pin A: + DC excitation.
  • Pin B: 0V DC excitation.
  • Pin C: - Signal.
  • Pin D: + Signal.
  • Pin E and F: Not connected.
Specifications
  • Output Impedance: 1.2 to 6.5 Ω (max).
  • Output Noise: 10 V rms (max).
  • Non-linearity: ±0.5% FRO (max).
  • Hysteresis: 0.02% FRO (max).
  • Resolution: 0.0005% FRO (min).
  • Cross-axis Sensitivity: ±1% FRO (max).
  • Zero Offset: ±2 Volts dc (max).
  • Damping Ratio: 0.7 (±0.2).
  • Thermal Zero Shift: ±0.02% FRO/°C (max).
  • Thermal Sensitivity Shift: ±0.02% Reading/°C (max).
  • Sensitive Axis Alignment: Vertical to mounting face.
  • Weight: 40 grams (max).
Electrical Characteristics
  • Input Voltage: 14.5 to 27 Volts dc.
  • Input Current: 5 mA dc (max).
Environmental Characteristics
  • Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 105°C.
  • Compensated Temperature Range: 0°C to 50°C.
  • Storage Temperature Range: -55°C to 130°C.
  • Humidity/Immersion: IP65.
  • Insulation Resistance: 20 MΩ (@50V dc).
Notes
  • Full Range Output (FRO) is defined as the full acceleration excursion from positive to negative, e.g., ±2g = 4g.
  • Non-linearity is determined by the method of least squares.
  • Cross-axis sensitivity is the output of the unit when subjected to full range acceleration in the cross-axis.
  • Zero offset is specified under certain conditions.
