Dytran's 7576A series of fully analog six degrees of freedom (6DOF) motion sensors monitor the translational and rotational components of motion at the same physical point. The sensor will provide the end-user with X, Y, Z acceleration (g's) as well as rotational information (roll, pitch, yaw expressed in degrees/sec) around those three orthogonal axes. Models contain three VC MEMS-based single-axis accelerometers as well as three MEMS-based gyros. The series offers multiple sensitivity ranges and provides end-users with a highly capable, cost-effective, small size 6DOF sensor for a myriad of sensing applications.

The sensors produce a single analog output per measurement channel. Six measuring channels are available for X, Y, and Z directions (acceleration and rotation rate output per axis). The series features improved electrical noise performance and enhanced frequency response. Units are packaged in a compact, lightweight, rugged, titanium, hermetically sealed housing for harsh environment survival. 

Specifications:

  • Available in five accelerometer g-ranges: ±2g, ±5g, ±10g, ±30g, ±200g
