Request Information
Tri-axial Accelerometer 50G, SS
The Tri-axial Accelerometers connect directly to the TEL100 to provide three outputs, each simultaneously measuring accelerations in the X, Y, and Z directions.requiring no additional amplification.They are the same size and can be used on any part of the body or external equipment. The pliable and unobtrusive design conforms readily to body contours. They come with a Velcro strap for easy attachment.
  • SS27 is optimal for measuring quick movements, such as swinging a tennis racket.
     
  • SS26A is optimal for meauring accelerations when performing slow movements, such as walking.
     

The accelerometers have a frequency response which extends from DC to 500 Hz. It is extremely accurate and can be easily checked for calibration by simply changing its orientation in three dimensional space, so that gravity (G=1) acts only upon the desired axis.

One input channel is required for each output. Accordingly, you will require three input channels to measure each axis simultaneously.

Attachment Guidelines

To prevent cable stress/tugging when the subject moves, which might affect the sensor, tape the cable to the subject.
  1. Tape the cable at a point a few inches from the accelerometer board/sensor (the molded part).
  2. Make a small loop with the cable after the first taping and then tape the cable again.

See TSD109F or the MP150 or MP100 System equivalent.
