Meggitt Sensing Systems has announced the Endevco model 2271A series, an accelerometer family designed for vibration and acceleration measurements in cryogenic and other extreme environments.
Available with either 10-32 side connector (model 2271A) or 10-32 top connector (model 2271AM20), the Endevco model 2271A series is designed to reliably operate over a wide operating temperature range of -269°C to +260°C (-452˚F to +500˚F). According to the company, units exhibit excellent output sensitivity and stability over time, with shock survivability to 10,000 g pk.
The piezoelectric sensing elements of the model 2271A series are housed in a corrosion-resistant stainless steel case, which is sealed for use in demanding environments. Signal ground is isolated from the sensor’s outer case. A 3-meter (10 ft.) low-noise coaxial cable is supplied for error-free operation. As a self-generating device, the accelerometer family requires no external power source for operation.
