Dytran accelerometer uses quartz shear technology

A Dytran Instruments product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Jul 24, 2009

Dytran Instruments has introduced a miniature tri-axial accelerometer, utilising the latest in quartz shear technology coupled with two-wire internal IEPE electronics.

The Model 3023A9 accelerometer contains three miniature quartz laminar shear-mode accelerometer elements mounted to a single support and welded into a titanium housing.

The three elements are mounted orthogonally to each other so that they can measure the complete motion of a point.

This unit is designed to mount by means of a 10-32 tapped hole in the base.

It features a sensitivity of 1mV/g and a single connector.

It is hermetically sealed and weighs only 4g.

The 3023A9 is said to be unique in that the labels of the X, Y and Z axes are laser marked in a large font size on the three orthogonal faces, aiding the user in orienting the sensor.

This model is the newest addition to the 3023A family of tri-axial accelerometers.

These units vary in sensitivity (1mV/g to 100mV/g), mounting style (10-32 stud, 5-40 stud and adhesive) and connector (single four pin or single five pin).

High-temperature and TEDS versions are also available.

Designed for modal analysis, the 3023A series is also ideal for use in the following applications: noise, vibration and harshness (NVH), environmental stress screening (ESS) and general-purpose vibration.
