Kistler Model 8795A K-Shear® Triaxial Cube Accelerometer
The 8795A50 is a triaxial family of accelerometers
that measure simultaneously shock and vibration in three orthogonal axis. They are available in two extended operating
temperature ranges; the 8795A50M5 for high temperature 330°F operation and the 8795A50M8 for low temperature -320°F cryogenic
operation. For installation ease, the sensors are housed in a convenient cube shaped package.
The notched corner
allows for convenient identification of the sensor's orientation when working in blind spots, such as under dashboards, etc.
Permanent laser-etched markings on five sides clearly identify the three axes. The K-Shear design is insensitive to thermal
transients and base strain. Quartz sensing elements provide years of accurate and repeatable measurements.
A low
impedance, voltage output is provided by the embedded Kistler Piezotron® electronic impedance converter. This output
does not require special low noise cable and provides high noise immunity and insensitivity to cable motion. The low
impedance output is also desirable for operation in a humid environment. Constructed in a heavy duty, hermetically sealed
titanium case, all accelerometer models can withstand varied environmental conditions. The units can be stud or adhesive mounted.
