Note that the PVC can calibrate both single-ended and differential output charge mode accelerometers.
Charge mode piezoelectric accelerometers offer high performance for precision vibration measurements in high temperature environments. Charge mode accelerometers are often used to monitor vibration in aircraft and ground-based gas turbines. Applications include:
Charge mode sensors are used in conjunction with a charge amplifier and charge converter, which convert the charge signal to a measurable voltage.
Charge output accelerometers can be quite costly, sometimes as much as $3000 to $5000 per sensor. They are often replaced unnecessarily or sent out for recalibration. With a Portable Vibration Calibrator from The Modal Shop, these sensors can be tested in-house. The PVC can be brought to the site of the sensor itself, saving the time and expense of an outside calibration and possibly saving the expense of a new sensor.
Portable Vibration Calibrators can help you create calibration certificates for a wide variety of charge accelerometers including ARCINC mount sensors and integral hardline cable sensors:
