PCB Piezotronics, Inc. Low-cost Industrial ICP® Accelerometer 601A02

The Low-cost Industrial ICP¬Æ Accelerometer, model 601A02, from PCB Piezotronics, Inc. features a sensitivity of 500 mV/g and a measurement range of ¬±10 g. It operates effectively across a frequency range of 10 to 480,000 cpm (0.17 to 8,000 Hz) with a resonant frequency of 960 kcpm (16 kHz). The device exhibits a non-linearity of ¬±1% and a transverse sensitivity of ,⧠7%. Designed for harsh environments, the accelerometer has an IP68 enclosure rating and can withstand temperatures from -65 to +250 ¬8F (-54 to +121 ¬8C). It has an overload limit of 5,000 g pk and a settling time of ,⧠10 seconds. The accelerometer requires an excitation voltage of 18 to 28 VDC and a constant current excitation of 2 to 20 mA. With a compact size of 7/8 in x 1.94 in (22.2 mm x 49.3 mm) and a weight of 2.8 oz (80 gm), it features a stainless steel housing and a ceramic sensing element. The electrical connection is made via a 2-pin MIL-C-5015 connector, and the device is hermetically sealed for durability. This accelerometer is suitable for applications requiring reliable performance in industrial settings.
