AC Response (Dynamic) Accelerometers The output of a piezoelectric sensor is AC-coupled by design, and is therefore best suited for dynamic measurements. Voltage mode piezoelectric is the most popular AC accelerometer design due to its high level output and its wide bandwidth. The Integral Electronics PiezoElectric (IEPE) type offers the convenience of using the same two-wire or coaxial cable for power and signal transmission, running in a constant current configuration. To measure shock and vibration in high temperature environments, a charge mode piezoelectric accelerometer may be needed. They come in various configurations to suit most application environments and are hermetically sealed to maintain their critical high impedance characteristics. 7108A 7514 7100A 8711 7131A 2 Featured Products Description 7502A, Charge Miniature size, 260°C, hermetically sealed. 12kHz bandwidth, titanium housing. 7514A, Charge High output (50pC/g), 260°C, hermetically sealed.
