Product Description:
The A/123 range of Piezo-tronic accelerometers is designed for applications such as modal analysis of lightweight structures and shock measurements. These accelerometers feature a hybrid QVC design with options for side or top entry connectors and integral stud or flat base for adhesive mounting. The design minimizes phase/gain errors associated with the lower corner frequency of the QVCs, maintaining a +/-5% corner frequency tolerance and a +/- 1/2 degree phase tolerance at the nominal corner frequency. The accelerometers can measure peak shocks up to 600g with certain bandwidth response conditions.
Performance Characteristics:
- Peak shock measurement capability up to 600g
- Rise time characterized by a single low-frequency pole air
- Droop of 10% of peak value for 20 ms rectangular pulses
- Overshoot caused by ringing is 10% for a rise time of 30 µSec, which may lead to signal clipping if excessive
Recommendations:
- Voltage sensitivities are standard, but a wide range of sensitivities is available upon request.
- Applications should be evaluated to determine the requisite sensitivity.
Graphical Data:
The document includes a graph showing the temperature response of different models (A/123/E, A/123/S, A/123/TS, A/123/TE) with sensitivity deviation plotted against frequency.

Piezo-Electric Accelerometers - A/123/E-1

^)DJB Instruments 123/E/ SI TE/ TS Piezo-tronic Voltage Accelerometer accelerometers includes a hybrid QVC, packaged to offer choice of side/top entry connector, integral stud or flat base (for adhesive mounting). Applications including modal analysis of lightweight structures and shock measurements are subject to individual phase/gain errors associated with the lower corner frequency of the QVC's. The radiometric nature of the modal analysis however reduces transfer function uncertainty to the associated lower corner frequency variations of individual QVC's. Thus a +1-5% corner frequency tolerance associated a +/- 1/2 degree phase tolerance at the nominal corner frequency. Peak shock of up to 600g with certain provisos relating to bandwidth response characterized by a single low frequency pole air, giving rise time. Droop will be 10% of peak pulses, for QVC corner frequency = 0.7Hz. Overshoot caused by ringing will be 10% for rise time 30u.Sec. and if excessive may lead to signal NOTE: Voltage sensitivities shown are standard.
