Description
- Type 8763B… is an IEPE (Integrated Electronics Piezoelectric) triaxial accelerometer permitting vibration measurements in three mutually perpendicular axes: x, y and z.
- Type 8763B… uses Kistler shear element technology, assuring high immunity to base strain. The welded titanium construction provides a lightweight hermetic housing. The miniature 4 pin ceramic insulated connector provides long-term stability over the operating temperature range. An integral silicone cable variant is available for application of underwater vibration testing at up to 10 bars [150 psi]. In addition to adhesive mounting,
- Type 8763B… has three 5–40 threaded holes for flexible stud mounting on a test object, fully utilizing each mounting side of the cube design. Additionally, three threaded holes provide reliable mounting for calibration of each orthogonal axis. See PiezoStar® triaxial Type 8766A… for high temperature 165 °C [+330 °F] and other frequency response options.
Application
- Type 8763B… provides wide frequency response in each axis, ideal for dynamic vibration measurements. It is well-suited for lightweight structures. Kistler Type 1784B…K03 is a M4.5, 4 pin to 3x BNC breakout cable. In addition, the Kistler M4.5, 4 pin sensor connector can be adapted for use with traditional ¼–28, 4 pin compatible cables, using the Kistler Type 1784AK02 extension cable. Other ¼–28, 4 pin breakout cables include: Type 1756C…K03/K04 and flexible Type 1734A…K03 cables.
