Accelerometers: Linear Static & Dynamic

An accelerometer is an instrument for measuring acceleration, detecting and measuring vibrations, or for

measuring acceleration due to gravity (inclination). Accelerometers can be used to measure vibration on

vehicles, machines, buildings, process control systems and safety installations.  They can also be used to

measure seismic activity, inclination, machine vibration, dynamic distance and speed with or without

the influence of gravity.

Rieker’s line of accelerometers are available in single, dual, or tri axial packages, with a variety of frequencies and G ranges to suit many different test and control applications. Our accelerometer sensors are small capacitive spring mass based with integrated electronics, which do not require external amplifiers for a very high resistance to extreme acceleration overloads and shocks. These accelerometers are available with analog DC, digital pulse-width modulated or frequency- modulated outputs.

Accelerometer descriptions and technical specifications are available below.
