Description

Applications
 Automotive Crash Testing
 Shock Testing

The accelerometers are based on an advanced piezoresistive MEMS technology and can be
used in a low frequency response up from 0Hz. The piezoresistive sensor element is made of
monolithic resistors. These resistors are attached to carrier-elements and are electrically
connected in a Wheatstone bridge. The electrical signal changes proportional to the vibration.

The model ASC 66C1 is a uniaxial accelerometer based on piezoresistive technology.
The model ASC 66C1A is a signal amplified uniaxial accelerometer. Both models are
small and compact accelerometers which meet the specifications of SAE J211. The
housing is a flat design made of hard anodised aluminium. Due to low mass, both
models are ideal for testing on light-weight structures.
The sensing element in both the models has integrated overload stops and therefore the
silicon chip is highly shock resistant. The models ASC 66C1 and ASC 66C1A have an
excellent non-linearity over a wide frequency response. Electrically the units features a
Wheatstone bridge configuration.
The models ASC 66C1 and ASC 66C1A can be obtained with all common sensor ID
modules. A very high flexible and rugged cable provides a simple mounting. The models
ASC 66C1 and ASC 66C1A are factory calibrated and are equipped with 6 meter cable as
a standard.
