B1, B2, B3 
Accelerometers of high overload resistance with integrated electronics for measurement of acceleration in the frequency range 0 to several 100 Hz
B_Sensor[+]

Features

Description

The sensors B1, B2 and B3 are capacitive spring-mass accelerometers with integrated electronics. Resonant peaks are minimized by special gas-dynamic damping in the primary transformer.
The sensors are manufactured with an analog DC output. The sensor electronics require only small amounts of power and are in conjunction with the capacitive primary transformer characterized by low error and high long-term stability.

Application

The accelerometers B1, B2 and B3 are used for applications requiring high overload tolerance, high long-term stability, small lower cut-off frequency down to measurement of static acceleration, very short on-transition delay and low power consumption. Typical applications include:
