PCB® Launches New High Temperature Charge Accelerometer with UHT-12™ Element

August 2, 2016

DEPEW NY USA- July 20, 2016- PCB Piezotronics announced the release of Model 357A100, a new high temperature differential charge accelerometer with a UHT-12™ sensing element. This accelerometer is for use during gas turbine engine research and testing and has industry standard 3-hole mount. This new model features a well-balanced, differential output that is isolated from case ground to reduce electrical noise found near airplane and helicopter gas turbine engines. Its charge output is self-generating and does not require an external power source.

The new UHT-12™ crystal technology features:
