Dytran Instruments, Inc. a leading manufacturer of piezoelectric and DC MEMS accelerometers, force and pressure transducers and associated electronics, has introduced the 7503A series, a family of high precision triaxial MEMS DC accelerometers designed for use in both commercial and military applications. The 7503A series accelerometers combine a micro-machined MEMS capacitive sensing element housed in a hermetically sealed titanium case to deliver reliable performance in harsh conditions.
Tailored for zero-to-medium frequency applications, the Dytran 7503A series combine an integrated VC accelerometer chip with high drive, low impedance buffer for low-level acceleration measurements. Offered with a choice of seven different sensitivities and available in measurement ranges between 2g and 200g, these highly accurate accelerometers offer a low-end frequency response down to DC (0 Hz), with an upper frequency range between 400 and 2,500 Hz with differential output.
Units are rugged to 5,000g shock and operate from +9 to +32 VDC power. The module contains three separate variable capacitance accelerometers configured orthogonally for X, Y, Z outputs and low noise electronics, with a 5/16-32 radial connector and easy mounting via two #4 or M3 screws.
Recommended accessories for the 7503A series include the model 6956A eight conductor cable assembly, 9-pin plug to (3) D-SUB connectors and model 4010 signal conditioner. The Dytran model 4010 is a microprocessor controlled, 3- channel DC signal conditioner amplifier designed for use with bridge-type or differential output accelerometers and pressure sensors.
