Accelerometers measure vibration in 3 orthogonal directions.

Press Release Summary:



Triaxial ICP® Ceramic Shear Accelerometers, Series 354B, includes 3 models, each with 3 hermetically sealed, titanium-cased, single-axis sensors mounted on hard anodized mounting block. Each sensor features three 10-32 coaxial connectors. Offering sensitivity of 2.5, 10, and 100 mV/g with measurement range of 2,000, 500, and 50 g, respectively, accelerometers include microelectronic signal conditioning circuitry and operate from -65 to +250°F.

New Triaxial Ceramic Shear ICP® Accelerometer Family Measures Vibration in Three Orthogonal Directions



September 1, 2005, Depew, NY - The Vibration Division of PCB Piezotronics, Inc. (PCB®), introduces Series 354B, a new family of Triaxial ICP® Ceramic Shear accelerometers, which simultaneously measure vibration in three orthogonal directions. Model 354B20 has a sensitivity of 2.5 mV/g (0.255 mV/(m/s²)) with a 2000 g (19620 m/s²) measurement range; Model 354B21 has a sensitivity of 10 mV/g (1.02 mV/(m/s²)) with a 500 g (4905 m/s²) measurement range; and Model 354B22 has a 100 mV/g (10.2 mV/(m/s²)) sensitivity with a 50 g (491 m/s²) measurement range. Each sensor has three separate, hermetically sealed, titanium cased, single axis sensors permanently mounted onto a single, hard anodized mounting block. In addition, each sensor features three individual 10-32 coaxial connectors.

These sensors are ideally suited to legacy applications, where both the footprint of the sensor and mounting hole locations are fixed. This sensor family features built-in microelectronic signal conditioning circuitry, which offers a low-noise, low impedance output signal while permitting long distance signal transmission and simplicity of operation. These durable designs are bolt mounted, operate in -65 to +250 °F (-54 to +121 ºC) temperatures, and survive accidental shock inputs to 5000 g (49050 m/s²).
