Meggitt unveils small, triaxial IEPE accelerometer

Irvine, California – Meggitt, a manufacturer of sensors for test and measurement applications, has introduced the ultra-miniature Endevco 35B, a small, light, triaxial IEPE accelerometer. The extremely small, light form factor makes it suited for applications in which it is critical to minimize mass loading on the test structure. Meggitt recommends the sensor for testing consumer electronics, computer peripherals, aerospace and automotive components, human body protective equipment, and precision machinery components.

 

The adhesively-mounted 35B has three transducers (measuring acceleration in X, Y, and Z axes) and integrated electronics into a 0.235" cube weighing only 0.55g. The performance of the 35B is competitive with other ultra-miniatures. 

 

Sensitivities of 2.5mV/g, 5mV/g, or 10mV/g are available. An anodized aluminum housing provides case isolation from the mounting surface. The weight of the 35B is exclusive of the integral, 36" cable terminating to a 4-pin connector; extension cables are available. The 35B is compatible with signal conditioner models 123 and 133, sold separately. Compliant to the European Union Low Voltage Directive 2006/95/EC and EMC Directive 2004/108/EC, the 35B is eligible to bear the CE mark.
