Vibration Sensors

Our supplier has 20 years of designing and manufacturing vibration sensors based on proprietary Microelectromechanical System (MEMS), bonded gage and piezoelectric ceramic/film technologies. Voltage mode piezoelectric is the most popular accelerometer design due to its high level output and wide bandwidth.

We offer voltage mode accelerometers in the traditional 3-wire or 2-wire (IEPE) confi gurations. Charge mode piezoelectric accelerometers measure shock and vibration in high temperature environments. In addition to its high temperature operating capability when used with a high quality charge amplifi er, a charge mode accelerometer off ers dynamic range scalability. To measure motion (velocity, displacement) accurately, an accelerometer or with DC response is required. Incorporating MEMS technologies and the latest analog and digital ASICs, our DC accelerometers off er high performance and exceptional value. All products are EAR99 and RoHS compliant.
