PCB Piezotronics Expands HUMS Product Offering



August 7, 2006, Depew, NY, USA - The Vibration Division of PCB Piezotronics, Inc., (PCB®) has expanded its line of Health & Usage Monitoring Systems (HUMS) products, to include new ICP®, charge output and high temperature sensors. HUMS products are designed for in-flight monitoring and predictive maintenance of critical flight systems on helicopters and some fixed wing aircraft.

PCB® HUMS sensors feature a robust design, are available in either ICP® or charge output designs, with top or side exit electrical connectors, and in a variety of hermetically sealed physical configurations. High temperature versions operate up to +900 ºF (+482 ºC); with a ± 500 g pk measurement range; and in frequencies of up to 15k Hz. Also available is the new Model 495B10 differential charge converter, operating from aircraft power, will condition the signal of a charge output accelerometer, enabling it to be used by standard data acquisition equipment.

PCB® manufactures a variety of aerospace sensors and signal conditioners for flutter test; load factor measurement; structural dynamics; acoustics and turbulent flow; control system input and response tests; engine/airframe and aircraft carrier qualification; and troubleshooting.
