4-170 Piezoelectric Accelerometer

Description:

The CEC Model 4-170 accelerometer is a self-generating, piezoelectric accelerometer designed for medium temperature vibration measurement applications. This instrument provides a high sensitivity and stable output for continuous operation at temperatures as high as +260°C (+500°F). While the unit does not require power for operation, the accelerometer output must be operated into a charge converter that is designed to accept a 100,000 ohm source resistance.

The 4-170 accelerometer's piezo ceramic sensing element is housed within a rugged case. The case and connector are both made from 440C S.S. The mounting base incorporates a standard three-point mounting pattern on a 1.188" diameter B.C., common to many applications. The 4-170 series provides a balanced differential output that is isolated from the case ground. Sensitivities available include 10 pC/g, 50 pC/g and 100 pC/g.
