Accelerometer TP-ACC20 - 25 | DCT | Test and Measurement

Features

Dual-axis accelerometer with ± 2 g measurement range, offering high precision for detecting both dynamic and static acceleration, including gravity-based measurements.
Sensitivity of 420 mV/g, providing clear and reliable output for precise data collection, ensuring accurate readings for vibration and motion testing.
Compact and lightweight sensor design with a flexible 2.5-meter cable, making it easy to integrate into your testing setup and move around large or confined spaces.
High bandwidth of 500 Hz and sensor resonant frequency of 5.5 kHz, enabling accurate tracking of fast-moving systems and providing high-quality signal responses.
Includes a manual external trigger button with a solid aluminum body, ideal for situations where an automatic trigger condition is not available, giving you manual control over the measurement process.
Mounting options include strong magnets for attachment to steel surfaces and velcro for fabric surfaces, allowing you to securely position the sensor in a variety of environments.
Designed for use with Handyscope and WiFiScope models, with a connector compatible with both 9-pin male D-Sub and 25-pin male D-Sub connectors, offering easy integration with a range of instruments.
Powered by the connected instrument, with a very low current draw of less than 0.5 mA, ensuring minimal power consumption and extended operation time.
Robust, easy-to-use design with a simple, intuitive interface, ideal for both beginners and experienced users in various industrial and laboratory settings.

The Accelerometer TP-ACC20 is a dual axis accelerometer combined with a manual, external trigger button, designed to be used with the Handyscope HS3, Handyscope HS4, Handyscope HS4 DIFF, WiFiScope WS4 DIFF (order code TP-ACC20-25) and Handyscope HS5, Handyscope HS6, Handyscope HS6 DIFF, WiFiScope WS5, WiFiScope WS6, WiFiScope WS6 DIFF (order code TP-ACC20-09).

The dual accelerometer is a low power dual axis accelerometer with voltage outputs. It can measure accelerations in two axes, up to ± 2 g. It can measure both dynamic acceleration and static acceleration (gravity).

The manual external trigger button can be used to trigger measurements in situations where no trigger condition can be derived from the input signals.

The acceleration sensor of the Accelerometer TP-ACC20 is placed in a small package with a long, thin flexible cable. The package contains strong magnets to attach the sensor to magnetic (steel) surfaces without the need of screws or clamps. One side of the package contains a patch of velcro, to attach the sensor to fabric surfaces.

The Accelerometer TP-ACC20 also contains a manual, external trigger button. This button can be used to manually trigger measurements in situations where no trigger condition can be derived from the input signals. The manual external trigger button has a solid aluminum body and is fitted with a female BNC connector. A long flexible cable with a male BNC connector is used to connect the button to the instrument.
