Piezoelectric-based sensors designed for the long-term measurement and monitoring of absolute vibration in the most severe of environments.
An external signal conditioner is used to convert the sensor’s low-level pC/g output into a current or voltage signal suitable for transmission to the monitoring system. As a result, CA-based solutions enable high-performance at higher temperatures.
