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

Description
The model ASC 61C1 is an uniaxial accelerometer based on piezoresistive technology and
factory calibrated. The ASC 61C1 is a small and compact accelerometer which meets the
specification SAE J211. Its housing is a flat design and hard anodized aluminum. Due to its
low mass this model is ideal for testing light weight structures.
The sensing element has integrated overload stops and therefore the silicon chip is highly
shock resistant. The ASC 61C1 has an excellent non-linearity over a wide frequency response.
Electrically it is configured as a Wheatstone Bridge.
The ASC 61C1 can be obtained with all common sensor ID modules. A very high flexible and
rugged cable provides a simple mounting. The ASC 61C1
is equipped as standard with 6 m of this cable.
