Acceleration sensors for precise and stable measurements
The Micro-Epsilon acceleration sensors are based on the MEMS technology and are therefore suitable for static and dynamic acceleration measurements. They detect accelerations in one, two or three axes. These sensors are often used in applications requiring maximum precision in harsh ambient conditions. Their high temperature stability enables the sensors to achieve very high measurement accuracy even when surrounded by strongly fluctuating ambient temperatures.
Characteristics
- High accuracy and resolution for precise measurements
- Extremely stable measurement signal, even with strongly fluctuating temperature
- High interference immunity with increased EMC requirements
- 4 - 20 mA current output, 0.5 - 4.5 V voltage output or RS485 interface
- Ideal for integration into machines and systems
- Robust sensor housing suitable for industrial use
The ACC530x acceleration sensor is used to reliably detect critical accelerations and vibrations. Its high shock resistance and protection class as well as simple and easy installation with an AMP plug make the ACC530x ideally suitable for serial applications, e.g., in mobile machines.
- 4 - 20 mA current output or 0.5 - 4.5 V voltage output
- Space-saving and robust plastic housing
- Simple connection via AMP connector
- Customized versions
The high signal-to-noise distance enables the analog ACC57 sensors to measure even minor accelerations which occur, e.g., with tower oscillations of wind turbines, bearings and also measuring/calibration systems. Its high EMC resistance makes the sensor ideally suitable for precise condition monitoring of electrical machines such as, e.g., generators. Combined with high temperature stability, the sensor is used in wind turbines to monitor the oscillations and vibrations of drive trains, rotor blades (ice detection) and generators (noise reduction).
- High resolution and temperature stability
- 4 - 20 mA current output or 0.5 - 4.5 V voltage output
- High interference immunity with increased EMC requirements
- Ideal for integration into machines and systems
- Customer-specific adaptations
Thanks to their high signal stability and resolution, the sensors are applied in laboratories and industrial measurement tasks. Due to the configuration possibility via software, the digital acceleration sensor can be ideally used for applications in industrial continuous operation and test benches. These laser sensors are used, e.g., in measurement and monitoring tasks in manufacturing automation, wind turbines, vehicles (road behavior and vehicle dynamics) and robotics.
The free configuration software offers simple commissioning of the digital acceleration sensor. The sensorTOOL software enables the user to set the high-pass and low-pass filters, the measuring range and the analog outputs depending on the respective application.
- High resolution and temperature stability
