2430

The Model 2430 triaxial accelerometer combines three orthogonally mounted Model 1210 accelerometers in a rugged case for measuring accelerations in commercial and industrial environments. It is tailored for zero to medium frequency instrumentation applications. The anodized aluminum case is epoxy sealed and is easily mounted via two #8 (or M4) screws. The design includes an instrumentation amplifier on each axis providing high drive capability and low output impedance. On-board voltage regulation and an internal voltage reference eliminate the need for precision power supplies. No power supply current flows through the OUTPUT REF wire; this high impedance input is used only as a reference for the acceleration outputs which reduces cross talk among the three channels by rejecting noise from voltage differences between the user's data acquisition equipment and power supply grounds. The 2430 is relatively insensitive to temperature changes and gradients. An optional initial calibration sheet (2430-CAL) and periodic calibration checking are also available.
