Low Noise Triaxial Accelerometer with TEDS, 3333MT Series

Press Release:
  Jul 20, 2011 — Chatsworth, CA – Dytran Instruments, Inc. (www.dytran.com) a leading manufacturer of piezoelectric and DC MEMS accelerometers, force and pressure transducers and associated electronics, has introduced a new series of miniature triaxial accelerometers, weighing just 4 grams. The 3333MT series was designed for modal analysis testing and general purpose vibration testing, and has a robust, laser welded titanium design which includes ceramic sensing elements coupled to ultra low noise JFET electronics.

The 3333MT is unique in that it features an ultra miniature 4-pin connector. Compared to the industry standard 4-pin connector (1/4-28 thread size), the connector on the 3333MT series is approximately 20% smaller in size. This substantial size difference allows for a more flexible, lighter weight cable, a smaller diameter for the connector, and also contributes to the overall smaller size of the sensor.

With a low end frequency response down to 0.65 Hz, the 3333MT series accelerometers offer excellent phase response at low frequencies. It also features an excellent signal to noise ratio.

The 3333MT series are available in sensitivities of 5 mV/g, 10 mV/g and 25 mV/g. Featuring a hermetic seal, case isolation and adhesive mounting, units are available with IEEE 1451.4 TEDS for larger channel count applications. Its titanium housing contributes to its lightweight, which provides for minimal mass loading of the test article.

Designed for modal analysis testing, the 3333MT series accelerometers are also ideal for the following applications: general purpose triaxial vibration measurements, shaker control, Squeak & Rattle, and Noise, Vibration & Harshness (NVH).
