Constant-current acceleration sensor AS-079

sensitivity

Type: CCS Sensitivity: 10 mV/g Min. Temp: –50 °C Max. Temp: +120 °C Hazardous area approval: no Accessory/ connection cable type: AO0572 (MIL-C 5015 – BNC), AO0573 (MIL-C 5015 – open endings) The AS-079 is mainly used formeasurement of vibrations at rotatingmachines such as turbines, pumps,compressors, etc. Measuring Principle The acceleration sensor operatesaccording to the piezo-electricRingshear principle. In the sensor thepiezo-element and an internal massforms a spring-mass damping system. When this system is subjected tovibrations, an electrical chargeproportional to the vibration acceleration is produced.
