ASC P313P-A15 Industrial IEPE Accelerometer

Industrial IEPE accelerometers are based on the piezoelectric effect, where an input acceleration causes a force on the seismic mass which leads to a proporti-onal charge generation within the ceramic PZT material. The IEPE (integrated electronics piezo-electric) circuitry features the conversion of the charge to an analog voltage output signal. As opposed to capacitive accelerometers this signal has a high-pass characteristic, which enables highly dynamic measurements with a very high bandwidth of up to 12 kHz (±10 %) even without the detection of static DC components. Further advantage of piezoelectric accelerometers is a high operating temperature range from -55 °C up to +150 °C.

Piezoelectric accelerometers are based on PZT ceramic and feature a built-in preamplifier and a charge to voltage converter. The industrial accelerometers providing a very high fullscale output voltage of ±8 V and low broadband noise of <100 µg. The sensors operate on a constant-current supply and use a simple four-wire cable for power input and signal output.

The accelerometers feature a robust stainless-steel housing with protection class IP67, different mounting options and a detachable cable with configurable length and connectors. The triaxial piezoelectric accelerometers ASC P313P-A15 (side connector) are ideal suited for industrial applications: condition monitoring of wind turbines and their components as well as predictive maintenance of machinery as part of the smart factory.
