General-Purpose Accelerometer features modular mounting system.

Threaded model 46A, available inÂ- 5 sensitivities from 10–1,000 mV/g, can be fitted into various mounting blocks (pods) with stud or adhesive mount. While hex and cube pods mount single-axis measurements, tri-hex pod, with slots for 3 sensors, let technicians test up to 3 sensitivities concurrently. For multi-axis testing, triaxial pod enables different sensitivities to be tested on...
