For automotive test apps, the Model 356B41 triaxial ICP accelerometer installs between the rider and vehicle seat for ride comfort studies and human vibration exposure investigations. The sensor mounts to a metal plate, which seats within a molded rubber pad. The sensor is easily removable for calibration and verification purposes. Meeting the requirements of ISO 10326-1, the component also supports whole body vibration studies in accordance with ISO 2631 and ISO 8041 standards, and supports compliance with EU physical-agents directives. Specifications include a sensitivity of 100 mV/g, frequency range of 0.5 Hz to 1 kHz (±5%), and a 1.5m cable with a 4-pin terminating connector. Additionally, the unit operates with the Larson Davis Model HVM100 human-vibration meter. PCB PIEZOTRONICS INC., Depew, NY. (800) 828-8840.
