4801A Amplified DC Accelerometer

MEMS DC signal conditioned acceleration sensor designed for vehicle testing, structural testing, test & instrumentation, transportation measurements, environmental testing

About the 4801A Amplified DC Accelerometer

The Model 4801A is a true hermetically sealed accelerometer in a rugged stainless steel package. It offers an amplified signal conditioned output in ranges from ±2 to ±200g. The model 4801A incorporates enhanced temperature compensation and a gas damped MEMS sensing element for optimum frequency response. Mechanical over-range stops offers shock protection up to 5,000g designed for both static and dynamic measurements in critical applications.
