Accelerometer
ARGH-A Small High Response High Capacity Single-axis Accelerometer
The ARGH-A is a small and high-response acceleration transducer incorporating a MEMS-based acceleration sensor. Its small, light-weight and robust structure allows the use of this transducer for the measurement in various fields such as machines, vehicles, ships, civil engineering and construction. This transducer can easily be used by merely connecting it to our dc-exciting dynamic strain meter without using an external power supply.
Protection ratings : IP 61 equivalent
Features
- Small and light-weight
- Wide frequency response range
- Dedicated to single-axis measurement
- Allowable overload is larger than that of strain gauge type acceleration transducer
- Measurement possible from DC level
- No need of external power supply; Measured just being connected to an instrument
- Output level equal to a strain gauge type acceleration transducer obtained by the built-in amplifier
Specifications
Type | Capacity | Rated output | Non-linearity | Temperature range |
---|---|---|---|---|
ARGH-500A | 500m/s 2 | Equivalent to 1800×10-6 strain ±10% | 2 %RO | |
ARGH-1000A | 1000m/s 2 | -10 ~ +60°C | ||
ARGH-2000A | 2000m/s 2 |
Output polarity
Measurement moves in the plus direction when acceleration occurs in the acceleration transducer itself toward the “+” mark on the casing.
