Ceramic shear accelerometers, center hole mount, 100 … 500 g / 8714B

Accelerometers of Type 8714B utilize a ceramic annular shear seismic element, Piezotron impedance converter and center hole hermetic housing with a hard anodized aluminum base and insulated mounting screw. The connector design is rugged and maintains excellent integrity with repeated connections. The ceramic sensing element components have been carefully designed to provide a high level of performance and low mass. The shear technology from Kistler ensures high immunity to base strain, thermal transients and transverse accelerations. Other features include extended high frequency response, low profile, low mass, ground isolation and hermetic sealing.
