4203 Plug & Play Accelerometer

Brand: American Sensor Technologies Inc
Request Information Favorite
The Model 4203 is a triaxial motorsport accelerometer designed for harsh installations. 

The rugged, gas damped accelerometer is ideally tailored for motorsport applications and road vehicle testing. The model 4203 features an 8- pole low-pass filter to ensure no high frequency engine noise will leak into the passband. 

A heavy-duty shielded cable and an EMI/RFI module protects the accelerometer from the harsh operating environment. Available in ranges from ±6 to ±50 g, the model 4203 will provide reliable measurements from -40° to 125° C.
