ACCELEROMETERS
By virtue of its dimensions, characteristics and compatibility with gyroscopes, this accelerometer allows the dynamic behaviour of the vehicle to be interpreted and checked.
Features :
| Range | +/-2G to +/-20G |
| Specifications | up to 1 KHz for capacitive types, 20 Hz for Gas types |
| Output | analogue 0 to 5V linear |
| Power supply | 5 to 16V |
| Consumption | Max 3mA (capacitive) Max 6mA (Gas) |
| Dimensions | 25 x 16 x 8mm |
The compensation temperature of 80°C makes it possible for our accelerometer to be used in extreme conditions.
Our 2 ranges, GAS type and Capacitive type, cover many applications :
The GAS type accelerometer, with no resonance and a reduced frequency range, is ideal for measuring general vehicle behaviour. For this product, the measuring range is from +/-1 to 10G.
The Capacitive Type accelerometer, with a frequency range of up to 1KHz, makes it possible to measure the acceleration of the constituent parts of the vehicle. The measuring range is from +/-1 to 20G.
We manufacture single or dual axis accelerometers.
It is also possible to combine 2 boxes to make up a 3 axis accelerometer.
for example :
1 two axis Gas type accelerometer +/-5G (vehicle X and Y) and 1 single axis accelerometer, Capacitive type +/-10G (vehicle Z)
Texys, nearly 20 years' experience in the development of high precision sensors distributes a range of sensors under the TEXENSE brand name ( accelerometer, infrared temperature sensor, pitot sensor, on board sensor ) for motor racing ( formula 1, rallye ), industry and automotive.
