Triaxial accelerometer ASC CS-1611LN

MEMScapacitivefor continuous structure monitoring

Product type

• Sensor type: Accelerometer (analog)
• Sensor technology: MEMS capacitive
• Number of sensitive directions: Triaxial
• Output signal: Current (4-20 mA)
• Measurement ranges [g]: 2, 5, 10, 50 (±2 to ±50 g)

Technology
The sensors of the ASC CS series are based on proven MEMS technology with a capacitive operating principle. The integrated electronic circuitry enables a single-ended analog current output of 4-20 mA and a flexible power supply voltage from 8 to 30 VDC. The models of the ASC CS series feature broadband noise of < 0.2 µA and are used in applications that require extremely long cables (>100 m) or very high EMC immunity. Scale factor: 0.16 mA/g to 4 mA/g.

Housing
The accelerometers feature a lightweight, reliable aluminum housing with protection class IP67 and an integrated cable with configurable length and connectors.

Applications
Due to their loss-free signal transmission, even in the case of very long cables, the sensors of the ASC CS series are used in continuous condition monitoring and structural health monitoring (SHM), such as infrastructure monitoring in rail transport or structural analysis of bridges.
