Portable
Accelerometer Calibrator Endevco Model 28959E
The Endevco Model 28959E Portable Calibrator is designed
to provide precision calibration for various types of
accelerometers in the field. It is also perfect for test
engineers and technicians needing on-site end-to-end calibration
of their complete measurement chain.
Model 58959E is a self-contained system which includes
built-in vibration exciter, signal generator, computer-controlled
amplifier/servo mechanism, reference accelerometer, thermal
printer, RS232 serial interface, LCD display screen, and
all necessary connectors and mounting accessories. The
unit can be powered by AC line voltage or its internal
rechargeable batteries. The calibrator is very powerful
but yet user-friendly. Operation may be learned quickly
by inexperienced operators.
Model 58959E is designed to accept charge and voltage
mode piezoelectric accelerometers directly. Piezoresistive
and variable capacitance type devices can also be calibrated
by adding an optional external signal conditioner. Test
amplitude is adjustable up to 10 g's over the frequency
range of 3 Hz to 10 kHz. An internal reference accelerometer
traceable to NIST serves as the comparison standard. Internal
static RAM stores over 1600 test results. Sensitivity
is supplied in English or metric engineering units. An
automatic self-test and self-calibration feature provides
measurement integrity at every power-up.
Features:
• Portable, rechargeable battery
• Ideal for on-site end-to-end calibration
• Test range: up to 10 g's, 3 Hz to 10 kHz
• Calibration traceable to NIST
• Integral printer provides handy record
• Internal memory for over 1600 tests
• RS-232 interface transfers field data
• 14-point calibration report traceable to NIST included
