About the 786F-IM General Purpose Vibration Sensor

This universal accelerometer offers a high sensitivity of 100 mV/g and a tolerance of ±5%, enabling precise measurements. It is equipped with an integrated cable positioned at the upper output and offers a cable length of 16 feet (approx. 4.88 m). The J9T2A Teflon coated cable is rated for temperatures up to 200°C for added durability. The sensor has an insulated housing and is internally shielded, providing reliable performance and protection from electromagnetic interference. Ideal for precision applications in demanding environments.
