The Kistler Group has announced the global market launch of Kistler
Type 8640A(x), a cost effective uniaxial PiezoBeam accelerometer with very wide mounting flexibility, designed for accurate measurement frequency events from 0,5 up to 5 000 Hz.
Available in three different ranges for 5, 10 and 50 g, the Kistler
Type 8640A(x) incorporates a bimorph piezoceramic sensing element, with internal Piezotron® charge converter matching most current front end systems with constant current line drive capability. Patented methods are used to thermally compensate the sensing element. Kistler
Type 8640A(x) also offers TEDS IEEE1451.4 capability as an option to simplify the daily measurement work. Excellent low noise and low interference offer a very high resolution up to 140 μg.
This single axis accelerometer with cube shape titanium housing is hermetically sealed and allows various mounting technologies, like attaching to the test surface with any available side with wax, adhesive, tape. In addition clip and stud technology are available as the sensor has a 5-40UNC threaded hole.
With its exceptional bandwidth, phase accuracy and shock survivability, the Kistler
Type 8640A(x) is ideal for use in SIMO or MIMO modal analysis, in operational modal analysis or seismic monitoring applications.
Recommended accessories for use with
Type 8640A(x) include highly flexible shielded cable Type 1768A… for low mass loading and several mounting accessories, like clip (800M156), magnetic (800M160), stud and ground isolated adhesive (800M158) and stud (8400K04) mounting.
