ASC OS-215LN-PG Rugged MEMS sensor for low-noise acceleration monitoring

Analog voltage output acceleration sensors for the demanding requirements of offshore applications


Key features

  • Bi-axial capacitive MEMS sensor
  • Very low noise: from 7 µg/√Hz
  • Measurement range: ±2 g to ±400 g
  • IP68 stainless-steel housing
  • Differential analog output ±4 V
  • Custom cable and connector options

Performance Highlights

The ASC OS-215LN-PG is a capacitive accelerometer based on proven MEMS technology. With a differential output and outstanding low-noise performance, it enables accurate monitoring of extremely low-frequency vibrations, static acceleration, and dynamic shock.

Operating Conditions

Its hermetically sealed IP68 stainless-steel housing ensures durability in harsh conditions, such as rail vehicle bogie testing, construction machinery, or structural health monitoring applications.

Typical Applications

  • Railway bogie stability measurements
  • Structural health monitoring (SHM) of bridges and buildings
  • Vibration testing in heavy-duty vehicles and industrial machines
  • Predictive maintenance systems
  • Static acceleration detection and displacement analysis

Advantages

Engineered for high reliability, this sensor ensures accurate data collection in the most challenging environments. The low noise density and wide frequency response (DC to 2,000 Hz) make it ideal for advanced monitoring applications where precision matters.

Additional Features

  • Compatible with TEDS module
  • Available with V4A stainless steel housing
  • Gas-damped with excellent linearity
  • Optional ISO 17025 calibration
  • Made in Germany with industrial-grade components
