- Operating temperature: −55 to 260 °C
- Frequency response: 0.5 to 6000 Hz
- Available with an integral soft-line cable with a flexible stainless steel hose
- Certified for use in potentially explosive atmospheres
Description
The CA202 piezoelectric accelerometer is a sensor with a piezoelectric sensing element that provides a charge output. Accordingly, an external charge amplifier (IPC707 signal conditioner), is required to convert this charge-based signal into a current or a voltage signal.
The CA202 is designed and built for long-term use in extreme environments characterised by high temperatures and/or hazardous areas (potentially explosive atmospheres).
