Product overviewThe product operates stably in both vertical and horizontal directions. With a natural frequency of 10 Hz, it is designated the Longitudinal-Transverse 10 Hz Sensor. It is used for vibration monitoring of large rotating machinery (e.g., power generators) and as the core sensor in handheld vibration monitoring instruments. The sensor maintains stable operation at elevated temperatures, with reported stability up to 150°C.
