Piezoelectric vibration sensor 0261231173

for machine monitoringfor railway applicationsfor automotive applications

Vibration sensors of this this type are suitable for detecting structure-borne vibration occurring for example in motor-vehicle engines due to irregular combustion and in machines. Thanks to their robust design, these vibration sensors can withstand even the most severe operating conditions. Areas of application: Knock control for internal-combustion engines, Machine-tool protection, Cavitation detection, Monitoring of pivot bearings, Anti-theft systems. Each vibration sensor has individual transmission characteristics closely related to the measuring sensitivity. The sensitivity is defined as the output voltage per unit of acceleration due to gravity (refer to characteristic curve). The production-related sensitivity scatter is acceptable for applications in which the main emphasis is on recording the occurrence of vibrations rather than on their amplitude. The low voltages supplied by the sensor can be evaluated using a high-impedance AC voltage amplifier. ►Reliable detection of structure-borne sound to protect machines and motors ►Piezo-ceramic element with high measurement sensitivity ►Sturdy compact design
