Triaxial accelerometer

The Type 8688A series instrument grade triaxial accelerometers are suited for use in a multitude of R&D and OEM applications where high-precision, low-frequency measurements and high-durability packaging are absolute requirements. The low mass, hermitically sealed (IP68) titanium cube measures just 12.5 mm and combines PiezoBeam technology with an integrated PiezoTron charge converter to produce a triaxial accelerometer that has an exceptional sensitivity to size ratio. Available in 5, 10 and 50 g versions, the devices combine an 0.5 to 5000 Hz frequency range with excellent phase accuracy and shock survivability, a specification suited to a wide variety of applications. The ground isolated mounting clip can be used in three sensor orientations for mounting flexibility. The primary mounting surface has a 10-32 UNF threaded hole for use with a ground isolated screw-on adhesive or magnetic mounting base. As an option, the accelerometers can be supplied with TEDS (Transducer Electronic Data Sheets) IEEE1451.4 capability.
