Columbia Research Labs, Inc. Single Axis In-Line Charge Converter 5814

The Columbia Series 5814 Single Axis In-Line Charge Converter is designed to convert charge signals from high impedance piezoelectric sensors into low impedance voltage signals, eliminating the need for charge amplifiers in various applications. It is compatible with all Columbia non-integrated piezoelectric accelerometers and pressure sensors. The device features three selectable conversion gains of 0.1, 1.0, and 10.0 mV/pcmb, and utilizes a #10-32 coaxial input connector. The output is available on both male and female BNC connectors, with power supplied through two binding posts. Key specifications include a minimum input source resistance of 10 MOc, an output impedance of less than 50 Oc for models 5814-01 and 5814-1, and less than 200 Oc for model 5814-10. The operating voltage range is from +22 to +32 volts, with a typical output DC bias of 9-11 volts. The frequency response ranges from 2 Hz to 20,000 Hz with less than 5% gain deviation. The device operates effectively in temperatures from -40¬8C to +85¬8C and is designed to withstand vibrations up to 15G and shocks of 100G. The physical dimensions are 3.80,Äù x 1.33,Äù x 1.80,Äù, and it weighs approximately 4.0 oz.
