Performance highlights
The ASC 5421MF is a high-precision triaxial MEMS acceleration sensor developed for demanding NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness) and vehicle dynamic tests. Its capacitive MEMS design provides accurate and drift-free DC response, making it ideal for both static and dynamic acceleration measurements.
It features a ±2.7 V differential analog output, enabling direct connection to data acquisition systems with high signal integrity. With selectable ranges from ±2 g to ±200 g and a wide frequency bandwidth up to 7000 Hz, the 5421MF supports a wide range of test applications including flutter testing, vehicle chassis dynamics, and structural vibration monitoring.
Usage conditions
The ASC 5421MF operates reliably in extreme environments, with a wide temperature range from –40 °C to +125 °C. Its compact 20-gram anodised aluminium housing offers robust protection in demanding test setups. Powered by a 5 to 40 VDC supply, the sensor delivers a calibrated ±2.7 V FSO analog output, ensuring high-quality, noise-resistant signal transmission.
Possible applications
- Vehicle and rail dynamic tests
- Test bench and road simulation platforms
- NVH and comfort evaluation
- Flutter and resonance testing in aerospace
- Structural monitoring under dynamic loading
