Sensing Systems' Endevco model 2228C
is a rugged low-mass triaxial piezoelectric accelerometer, designed to suit a
variety of general vibration testing requirements. With a sensitivity of 2.8
pC/g, the Endevco model 2228C is designed to provide vibration measurements on
three orthogonal axes with 10-32 receptacles to allow data collection from
three separate output connections. These connections also offer a visual
reference for the orthogonal axes being measured. The total package weighs 15
grams and minimizes mass loading on small structures and objects. Units are
designed to operate over a temperature range of -55 to +177C (-67 to +350F),
with mounting via two-hole screw or adhesive. The accelerometer is a self-generating
device that requires no external power source for operation. Signal ground is
isolated from the mounting surface of the unit. Low-noise, flexible coaxial
cables are supplied for error-free operation and is available at specially
discounted rates as part of the -R replacement sensor program.
The model 2228C is useful used in R&D, metrology,
lighting systems, wireless equipment, space shuttle and solid rocket booster
electronics assemblies, helicopter engines, combustion turbines and vacuum pump
applications.
