Product catalog summary
Description
The Model 2266 accelerometer module integrates a model 1221L accelerometer with high drive, low impedance buffering, suitable for zero to medium frequency applications in commercial and industrial environments. It features an anodized aluminum case, epoxy sealing, and is mountable with screws. The module includes on-board regulation to minimize supply voltage variation effects and is relatively insensitive to temperature changes. It connects via a 5-pin connector and offers optional calibration services.
Operation
The module outputs two analog voltages that vary with acceleration. The sensitive axis is perpendicular to the package bottom, with positive acceleration defined as a force on the bottom. Outputs are differential around a 2.5V common mode voltage, with a scale factor independent of the supply voltage. At zero acceleration, the differential output is 0V DC, and at full scale, it is ±4V DC.
Applications
Applications include flight tests, vibration monitoring and analysis, machine control, modal analysis, robotics, crash testing, and instrumentation. Key features include capacitive micromachining, nitrogen damping, low power consumption, and operation from -40 to +85°C with a power supply of +8 to +32V DC.
Available G-Ranges
The module is available in various models with full-scale acceleration ranges of ±2g, ±5g, ±10g, ±25g, and ±50g.
Signal Descriptions
Power is supplied via red (Vs) and black (GND) wires. Green (AOP) and white (AON) wires provide analog outputs proportional to acceleration. At zero acceleration, both outputs are approximately 2.5V.
Performance
Performance varies by model, with input ranges from ±2g to ±50g and frequency responses from 0-400Hz to 0-2000Hz. Sensitivity, output noise, and mechanical shock tolerance are specified for each model. General performance parameters include cross-axis sensitivity, bias calibration error, temperature shifts, scale factor errors, and power supply rejection ratio.
Differential vs Single Ended Operation
The accelerometer performs best in differential mode using both AOP and AON outputs. Single-ended operation is possible but reduces the signal-to-noise ratio by half.
Cable Specifications & Length Considerations
The cable features gold-plated brass connectors and a Teflon FEP shield. It supports lengths up to 15 meters without testing for instability. For longer lengths, check for oscillation in the 20kHz to 50kHz range. The module can drive over 600 meters of cable, but oscillation may occur between 15 and 600 meters.

It is tailored for zero to medium frequency instrumentation applications. The anodized aluminum case is epoxy sealed and is easily mounted via two #4 (or M3) screws. On-board regulation is provided to minimize the effects of supply voltage variation. It is relatively insensitive to temperature changes and gradients. A removable cable 2266-CAB attaches via a 5-pin connector. An optional initial calibration sheet (2266-CAL) and periodic calibration checking are also available. OPERATION The Model 2266 accelerometer module produces two analog voltage outputs, which vary with acceleration as shown in the graph on the next page. The sensitive axis is perpendicular to the bottom of the package, with positive acceleration defined as a force pushing on the bottom of the package. The signal outputs are fully differential about a common mode voltage of approximately 2.5 volts. The output scale factor is independent from the supply voltage of +8 to +32 volts. At zero acceleration the output differential voltage is nominally 0 volts DC; at ±full scale acceleration the output differential voltage is ±4 volts DC respectively.

Model 2266 CABLE SPECIFICATIONS & LENGTH CONSIDERATIONS The case connector pins and cable connector sockets are gold plated brass. The connector shells are Nylon. The cable consists of four 28 AWG (7x36) tin-plated copper wires with Teflon FEP insulation surrounded by a 40 AWG tin plated copper braided shield. The shield jacket is Teflon FEP with a nominal outer diameter of 0.096”. Cable lengths of up to 15 meters (50 feet) can be added to the standard 1-meter cable without the need to test for output instability. For lengths longer than 15 meters we recommend you check each individual installation...
