NOTES
1.
Low end response of the transducer is a function of
its electronics.
2.
Adhesives such as cyanoacrylate epoxy (super
glue), petro-wax and hot-melt glue and may be
used to mount the accelerometer.
SPECIFICATIONS
The following performance specifications conform to ISA-RP-37.2 (1964) and are typical values, referenced at +75°F (+24°C) and
100 Hz, unless otherwise noted. Calibration data, traceable to National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), is supplied.
