  • How High in Frequency Are Accelerometer Measurements Meaningful
    resonances of 100s. of KHz to above 1 MHz. The original intent of this design (Model. 7270) was to create an accelerometer with a resonant frequency. high enough that it would not be excited in metal-to-metal impact. or explosive environments. These types of environments are. generally described
  • PT 101: Accelerometers Measure Slow Speed Rollers and Detect High Frequencies
    accelerometers are the sensor of choice for accurately measuring the broad range of frequencies and low amplitudes occurring in slow speed roller bearing installations. Wilcoxon accelerometers are specially designed to maximize sensitivity to low level vibrations. Their low electronic noise floor is needed
  • Accelerometer Mounting Considerations
    An accelerometer is an instrument that senses the motion of a surface to which it is attached, producing an electrical output signal precisely analogous to that motion. The ability to couple motion, (in the form of vibration or shock), to the accelerometer with high fidelity, is highly dependent
  • Introduction to LIVM Accelerometers
    Low Impedance Voltage Mode (LIVM) accelerometers are designed to measure shock and vibration phenomena over a wide frequency range. They contain integral IC electronics that converts the high impedance signal generated by the piezo crystals to a low impedance voltage that can drive long cables
  • Selecting Accelerometers for and Assessing Data from Mechanical Shock Measurements
    After first clarifying what mechanical shock is and why we measure it,. basic requirements are provided for all measurement systems that. process transient signals. High- and low-frequency dynamic models for. the measuring accelerometer are presented and justified. These models. are then used
  • Bridge Monitoring Based on a Network of High Performance Triaxial MEMS Accelerometers
    An efficient MEMS transducer network has been developed specifically to check the structural health of bridges starting from the acceleration measurement to monitor the frequency and speed variations.
  • Why is MEMS the Preferred Technology for High Shock Measurement?
    associated with high-amplitude,. high-frequency mechanical shock. An unsung hero, a chemist named. Ralph Plumlee at Sandia National Labs, researched this phenomenon. In 1971 Plumlee issued a 73 page report distributed to manufacturers. of shock accelerometers detailing the dipole switching mechanisms
  • Development of a Damped Piezoresistive MEMS High Shock Sensor
    Piezoresistive (PR) silicon accelerometers with micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) technology are preferred in many high shock impact measurements. These devices exploit the strength of single crystal silicon (SCS) along with the minimal zero shifting associated with PR sensors. However
