HONEYWELL-ACC QA-1400

Q-Flex® QA-1400
Accelerometer
Cost-effective inertial-grade sensor
For the most cost-effective inertial-navigation grade solution,
The QA1400 also includes a current-output, internal temperature
Honeywell produces the QA1400 for a variety of industrial
sensor. By applying temperature-compensating algorithms, bias,
and laboratory applications.
scale factor, and axis misalignment performance are dramatically
As with the entire Q-Flex family of accelerometers, the
QA1400 features a patented Q-Flex® etched-quartz-flexure
seismic system. An amorphous quartz proof-mass structure
improved. Implementation of the thermal modeling results in bias
residual errors as low as ±200 µg and scale factor errors as low as
±400 ppm.
provides excellent bias, scale factor, and axis alignment
stability.
The integral electronics develops an acceleration-proportional
output current providing both static and dynamic acceleration
measurements. By use of a customer supplied output load
resistor, appropriately scaled for the acceleration range of the
application, the output current can be converted into a
voltage.
