EGCS-D5 Plug & Play Accelerometer

Brand: American Sensor Technologies Inc
Request Information Favorite
The Model EGCS-D5 accelerometer is critically damped with built-in over-range stops that are set to protect the unit against up to 20,000g shocks. 

This is ideal for applications which may experience rough handling or in situations where the accelerometer must survive a high initial overload in order to make a low g measurement. 

These units feature a Wheatstone Bridge output with compensated temperature range of 20°C to 80°C. An inline amplifier option is available for superior signal to noise performance.
