Honeywell Sensotec offers both strain gauge and piezoelectric accelerometers so that your sensor will provide the best measurements possible given the conditions encountered in your application. Strain gauge accelerometers must be used whenever DC or very low frequencies are to be measured. Piezoelectric accelerometers should be used when high frequency performance is required on such applications as gear boxes, ball bearings, etc. Piezoelectric accelerometers should not be used below 3 Hz. Piezoelectric accelerometers should be used where rough handling and high impacts are expected.

Honeywell Sensotec accelerometers measure a wide range of frequencies from DC to 6000 Hz and full ranges of 5 G to 2000 G. These units will survive overloads up to 500% (varies with model). Honeywell Sensotec's accelerometers are also designed to cope with operating temperatures between -100ºF to 500ºF. Honeywell Sensotec's range of outputs are as varied as any manufacturer in the world. They include ±5 V, 100 mV, 100 pC/G, and 2 - 10 mA.
