During the warranty period, Measurement Specialties will, at its option, either repair or replace products which prove to be defective. Exclusions This warranty does not apply to defects or damage resulting from: •Improper installation or maintenance •Customer supplied software or interfacing •Unauthorized modification or misuse •Operation outside of the product specifications Limitations The warranty set forth above is exclusive and no other warranty, whether written or oral, is expressed or implied. Measurement Specialties specifically disclaims the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose. Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. However, any implied warranty of merchantability or fitness is limited to the three-year duration of this written warranty. Warranty Service To obtain service during the warranty period, products must be returned, transportation prepaid, to Measurement Specialties. 34207A Rev. 8/18/13 How to Use the 34207A 2 ►Connect ► a +8.5 to +36 V DC power source to pin 8, ground to pin 9. 1.115 [28,30] 0.295 [7,50] 3 mm x 0,5 mm Thread 3,5 mm [0.138] Deep 0.295 [7,50] (6) Mounting Holes on 3 sides 0.945 [24,00] 0.354 [9,0] Dimensions in inches [mm], identical for each view where applicable. 0.945 0.354 [24,00] [9,0] Cable to 9-pin male D-Shell connector 3 1 2 Mounting Instructions ►Use ► two 3.0 mm x 0.5 mm thread machine screws to attach to one of the three 34207A mounting faces [recommended torque 5 lbf-in (0.56 N.m)]. DO NOT thread a screw more than 2.5 mm (0.100 inch or 5 turns) into any 34207A mounting face as this can damage the accelerometer and will VOID the warranty. ►A ► light film of oil or silicone grease can be used to enhance contact between two mounting surfaces. ►A ► locking compound should be used on all threads to prevent screws loosening due to vibrations.

Pins other than +Vs should not exceed 5 V. ►Connect ► a differential or floating input A/D converter to each signal and signal common pins (pins 1 and 2 for Accelerometer 1, pins 3 and 2 for Accelerometer 2, pins 5 and 2 for Accelerometer 3 and pins 6 and 2 for Temperature). For best results, use a converter with an input impedance greater than 1 MΩ and common mode rejection ratio greater than 60 dB. Single-ended converters are not recommended but if used, leave pin 2 unconnected to eliminate ground loops. A positive acceleration (labeled on the accelerometer cover) causes a positive change on the corresponding output. ►Keep ► cable lengths between the accelerometer and A/D converter as short as practical. Use shielded twisted pair wiring, especially near electric motors or other noise sources. ►As ► a rule of thumb, sample frequency should be at least 10 times the signal bandwidth when linear interpolation is used for signal reconstruction. Built-in or external low-pass filtering can be used to lower the noise floor and eliminate spurious peak measurements from short-duration shock impulses with insignificant energy content. ►A ► logic 0 on the self-test input will add to accelerometer outputs (see calibration certificate for amount). An output that changes significantly more or less (±20%) than the certificate amount indicates a defective channel, shorted pin or broken wire. The self-test signal is approximate and should not be used for calibration. If the self-test feature will not be used, pin 7 may be left disconnected.
