New Miniature Teardrop ICP Accelerometer

Ideal for Small Component Vibration and Package Testing

A new miniature teardrop ICP accelerometer is released by PCB Piezotronics, Inc. Model 352A74 has a sensitivity of 100 mV/g and a measurement range of ±50 g peak. The sensor is hermetically sealed in a low profile titanium housing and is adhesively mounted.

With a flexible one-foot, twisted pair integral cable, it easily mounts in tight spaces. The cable is spliced into a heavier gauge coaxial cable for a length of 10 feet, terminating in a 10-32 connector.

The high sensitivity combined with a low 1.2 gram mass makes this model ideal for vibration testing of electronic components, circuit boards, and other small structures. The small size, light weight, and unique cable arrangement is suited for applications where mass loading must be minimized and space is at a premium.

With built-in microelectronic signal conditioning circuitry, Model 352A74 provides a low-noise, low impedance output signal while permitting long distance signal transmission and simplicity of operation. The durable design operates in -65 to +250 °F temperatures and survives accidental shock inputs to ±5,000 g.

Model 352A74 is available for immediate shipment. For more information, visit pcb.com/accelerometers/352A74.
