MEMS DC Response Accelerometers

PCB Piezotronics, Inc.

PCB Piezotronics, Inc.

PCB® series 3711F, 3713F, 3741F, and 3743F MEMS DC response sensors are used to measure low frequency motion down to zero hertz. These accelerometers are used in applications such as structural monitoring, aerospace vibration testing, drivability, and gravitational force measurements. Each series includes a full scale measurement range from ± 2g to ± 200g and features low spectral noise with high resolution.

ICP® Shock Accelerometers

PCB Piezotronics, Inc.

PCB Piezotronics, Inc.

Piezoelectric ICP® accelerometers afford a very high signal output (+/- 5 volts full scale) and the ease of two-wire electrical connectivity. Their inherent ruggedness enables them to be severely over ranged without damage. The addition of internal mechanical isolation minimizes the high frequency stress that would otherwise be encountered by their ceramic sensing elements. This mechanical isolation, coupled with an internal 2-pole electrical filter, built into the ICP® circuitry, tailors the overall accelerometer response to assure data quality to frequencies as high as 10 kHz. Depending on the specific model, accelerations in excess of 50 kg can be successfully measured. These modern designs, with their internal elastomeric isolation materials are verified through calibration to remain dynamically linear and are enabling piezoelectric accelerometers to operate in increasingly severe acceleration environments.

3-Component Quartz Force Links

261 Series

PCB Piezotronics, Inc.

261 Series - PCB Piezotronics, Inc.

Three-component force links eliminate the preload requirement of 3-component quartz force ring sensors, and offers a convenient, 4-screw hole mounting plate on each side end the sensor. Quartz 3-component force links are constructed by installing a 3-component force ring sensor, under preload, between two mounting plates.

Hydraulic & Pneumatic Pressure Sensors

PCB Piezotronics, Inc.

PCB Piezotronics, Inc.

One of the toughest applications for pressure sensors is measuring high pressure, repetitive pulses, such as those encountered in hydraulic applications. However, our pressure sensors are designed to continuously measure repetitive pulses during applications such as hydraulic cylinder “torture” testing or diesel fuel injection. Ordinary diaphragm-type sensors usually fatigue quickly in such applications.

Ground Isolated ICP® Pressure Sensors For High Frequency

PCB Piezotronics, Inc.

PCB Piezotronics, Inc.

PCB® Series 102B is a ground isolated version of the Series 113B. These sensors have all of the same features and benefits of the 113B Series, plus the added benefit of isolation, which helps prevent ground loop problems. This series can accommodate an optional ablative coating (Prefix: CA) to protect the diaphragm from thermal shock in flash-temperature applications.

Miniature Piezoelectric Accelerometers

PCB Piezotronics, Inc.

PCB Piezotronics, Inc.

Structured with highly sensitive piezoceramic sens­ing elements, miniature Ceramic Shear ICP® Accelerometers have an excellent signal-to-noise ratio, high measurement resolution, and are ideal for conducting low-level vibration measurements. Due to their inherent higher sensitivity, a ceramic ICP® accelerometer can be assembled with a smaller mass than comparable quartz units, resulting in a sensor that is lighter in weight, has a higher frequency response, and has a lower noise floor. To further reduce the mass of the sensors, all ceramic shear accelerometers are housed in either tough, lightweight, laser-welded, hermetically sealed, titanium or aluminum housings. By minimizing the mass of the sensor, mass loading effects are reduced, which maximizes the accuracy of the data obtained.
