The Endevco Model 2276 is a precision piezoelectric
accelerometer for shock and vibration measurement of structures
subjected to very high temperatures and is capable of
operation in nuclear environments during the presence
of gamma and neutron radiation. This accelerometer features
a side mounted 10-32 receptacle and hex base construction
with a 10-32 or M5 center stud mount. The accelerometer
is a self-generating device that requires to external
power source for operation.
The 2276 features Endevco's Piezite® Type P-14 sensing
element in our patented ISOBASE® construction, to
provide for flat charge temperature response over the
range of -67°F to +900°F (-55°C to +482°C). In addition,
ISOBASE construction provides mechanical isolation of
bending motion from the mounting case The unit is constructed
using Inconel, and provides for hermeticity through welding
and glass-to-metal fusion at the connector. Signal return
is connected to case.
Endevco Signal Conditioner Model 2721B is recommended
for use with this accelerometer. The 2771A Remote Charge
Convertor is also compatible for applications using this
high impedance accelerometer.
