Rugged ±10 g to ±40 g
Biaxial Accelerometer with Signal Conditioning and Temperature Sensor
Technical Data*
Simplify Acceleration and Temperature Measurements
![[Picture of 23200B Biaxial Accelerometer]](23200B.gif)
The Summit Instruments 23200B accelerometer has two orthogonal axes
and a temperature sensor in a small rugged package. The small size and
built-in power regulation allow the 23200B to fit where other accelerometers
can't. A power source of +8 to +30 VDC is all that is required
to measure temperature and ±10 g, ±15 g, ±20 g, ±25 g,
±30 g, or ±40 g accelerations on each of two axes.
When extra precision is required, the high repeatability of the built-in
temperature allows precise compensation of temperature effects and alignment
data provided on the optional calibration certificate can be used to
compensate for transverse sensitivity and alignment errors.
Each axial sensor has been tested over the -40 to +85°C temperature
range. Each axis has a nominal full scale output swing of ±2 volts.
The zero g output level is nominally ±+2.5 volts. Precise values
for each axis are provided on the optional calibration certificate.
Custom versions of the 23200B can be provided for applications which
require different ranges and/or bandwidths.
Features and Benefits
- High Accuracy and Linearity over Wide Temperature Range
The voltage output for each axis of the 23200B is directly proportional
to the acceleration along that axis. Each DC-coupled output is fully
scaled, referenced, and temperature compensated. Accuracy is improved
by minimizing variations due to temperature and aging effects, resulting
in a sensor that is more stable over temperature than piezoelectric
or piezoresistive devices. Critical applications can use the built-in
temperature sensor to compensate for residual temperature effects.
- Calibration Certificate
Each 23200B can be supplied with an optional calibration certificate
listing gain, offset, and on-axis and transverse alignment parameters
needed to ensure rapid and efficient system implementation. The alignment
data can be used to compensate the measured values if needed.
- Self-Test on Digital Command
A TTL-compatible self-test input causes a simulated acceleration to
be injected into both accelerometers to verify channel integrity.
- Small Size
Complete conditioned biaxial accelerometer in less than a cubic inch.
- Built-in Power Supply Regulation
Unregulated DC power from +8 to +30 volts is all that is required
to measure accelerations on both axes. The 23200B is ideal for automotive
applications with the ability to survive both continuous reverse battery
to -20V and load dump transients to +60V.
- Easy installation
Built-in terminal block or cable with 9-pin connector makes it easy
to wire the 23200B. Two through holes and four tapped holes simplify
mounting.
- Suitable for Harsh Environments
The 23200B is robust and can be used in harsh environments. The unit
will survive 500 g powered and 2000 g unpowered.
