In-Dummy Accelerometer for Safety Crash Testing



Measurement Specialties, Inc. (NASDAQ: MEAS) has released to production its Model 64L accelerometer for safety crash testing. Uniquely designed with a transverse sensitive axis, the Model 64L is compliant with SAE J2711 standards for anthropomorphic dummy instrumentation.

This unit features a full bridge output configuration with a temperature range from 0 to +50º C. A slight amount of internal gas damping provides outstanding shock survivability and a flat amplitude/phase response up to 7kHz.

The Model 64L is based upon Measurement Specialties, Inc.'s 3rd generation silicon MEMS sensing technology featuring 10,000g shock protection and <1% transverse sensitivity (optional). Excitation is 2-10Vdc with output ratiometric to excitation. Units are available from ± 50g through ± 6000g with flat amplitude response up to >4Kz. The high impact TPE-jacketed cable provided for the Model 64L provides protection against scrapes and cuts commonly encountered in crash applications.

Each unit is packaged with an NIST traceable calibration certificate. Post sale factory calibration is supported by MEAS's California Vibration Design Center and its two manufacturing facilities in China and France. These devices are EAR99 export compliant and warranted for a period of one year from date of shipment to original purchaser to be free from defects in material and workmanship.

Measurement Specialties, Inc. designs and manufactures sensors and sensor-based systems. The company produces a wide variety of sensors and transducers to measure precise ranges of physical characteristics such as pressure, force, vibration, torque, position, temperature, humidity, fluid properties, mass air flow and photo optics. Measurement Specialties uses multiple advanced technologies - including piezo-resistive, electro-optic, electro-magnetic, variable reluctance, magneto resistive, digital encoders, thermistors, thermocouples, RTDs, capacitive, resonant beam, application specific integrated circuits (ASICs), microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), piezoelectric polymers and strain gauges to engineer sensors that operate accurately and cost-effectively in customers' applications.
