The Endevco Model 7293A Microtron accelerometer family uses unique variable capacitance microsensors and incorporates special filtering and shielding for EMI and RFI exposure.
The TEDS Reader shows the entire transducer data sheet in full detail, in contrast to similar devices that only read certain lines of a template.
Engineers can also use the PDA to write task-specific information to user fields in the TEDS Reader, as defined in the standard.
The rugged TEDS Reader was built to the highest quality standards and has undergone rigorous testing to assure high performance in virtually any environment.
The system also includes an interface cable with 10-32 transducer connector.
