8778A

Family Type 8778A are extremely lightweight accelerometers for use in a wide range of applications.
 
  • Low impedance, voltage mode
  • Ultra low base strain and thermal transient response
  • Wide frequency response: 2 … 9000 Hz (±5 %)
  • Ground isolated assembly
  • Very low weight of 0.4 grams
  • Conforming to CE
Family Type 8778A are high frequency, ultra-miniature, lightweight accelerometers that contain a uniquely designed ceramic shear sensing element. The shear mode element design provides an immunity to thermal transients, base strain and transverse motion. An internal microelectronic Piezotron signal conditioning circuit converts the charge developed in the ceramic element, as a result of the accelerometer being subjected to a vibration, into a useable high level voltage output signal at a low impedance level. The units are designed for wax or adhesive mounting and are supplied with a custom wrench to facilitate removal after testing.
