Mounting Instructions
►Use
►
two 3.0 mm x 0.5 mm thread machine screws to attach
to one of the three 11206AC 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 11206AC
mounting face as this can damage the gyro and will VOID
the warranty.
►A
► locking compound should be used on all threads to
prevent screws loosening due to vibrations.

Measurement Specialties, Inc. warrants this product against defects
in materials and workmanship for a period of three years from date of
shipment. During the warranty period, Measurement Specialties, Inc.
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

•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, Inc. 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

How to Use the 11206AC
►Connect
►
a +8.5 V (or +12 V for Option L001) to +36 V DC
power source to pin 8, ground to pin 9.
►Connect
►
a differential or floating input A/D converter
to each signal and signal common pins (pins 1 and 2).
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 rotation (marked on the
gyro label) causes a positive change on the corresponding
output. Rotation is measured around the axis as defined
by right hand rule.
►Keep
►
cable lengths between the angular rate sensor and
measuring equipment 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 shortduration shock impulses with insignificant energy content.
