Piezoresistive Accelerometer meets SAEJ211 specifications.March 2, 2007 -
Designed to measure short duration shocks as well as long duration transients, Model 1500 MEMS Piezoresistive accelerometer features dc to ≥20 kHz frequency response, which allows measurements of shock signals without spurious effects such as zero shifts, amplitude distortion, and phase distortion. With mass less than or equal to 1 g, unit is suited for testing lightweight structures and systems, and meets SAEJ211 specifications for anthropomorphic dummy instrumentation.

VIP SENSORS Announces New MEMS Piezoresistive Accelerometer
San Juan Capistrano, California- VIP SENSORS introduces a new product - The Model 1500 is a MEMS Piezoresistive accelerometer designed to measure short duration shocks as well as long duration transients. Its undamped design and wide frequency response (DC to ≥20KHz) allows measurements of shock signals with excellent fidelity, without spurious effects such as zero shifts, amplitude distortion, and phase distortion typical of AC or damped DC accelerometers. Its low mass (¡Ãœ1 gram) minimizes mass loading effects, therefore it is ideal for testing lightweight structures and systems. Model 1500 meets SAEJ211 specifications for anthropomorphic dummy instrumentation therefore is ideal for automotive crash testing, flutter testing and vehicle road testing.
VIP Sensors offers a range of piezoelectric and voltage mode accelerometers, piezoresitive accelerometers, signal conditioners, cable assemblies and accessories in addition to their newly released Smart Sensors Network System. Shock and vibration calibration services are also available for all types of accelerometers. The companys strength is in its technical expertise in sensor and electronics design. VIP Sensors' goal is to provide state-of-the-art, quality products at a very competitive price.
