- Piezoelectric crystal is attached to a seismic mass
- When the crystal is stressed in tension or compression it generates an electrical charge
proportional to the acceleration level it is experiencing
- Internal circuitry converts this signal into a voltage output for data collectors or current (4-20mA)
output for process control loops
- No moving parts
- Offers long-term stability and reliability
- Wide Frequency & Dynamic Ranges
- Operates in harsh environmental conditions
- Unaffected by oil, dirt and most chemicals
- Operates over a wide temperature range
