Accelerometer for vibration measurement
We are a distributor of Hansford Sensors and therefore offer the full product range of various accelerometers for all industries.
Exit on the side or at the top
Depending on how much space is available on the machine, it is a good idea to consider whether your accelerometer should have an exit on the side or at the top. Often, a SIDE exit accelerometer can be advantageous when a sensor is attached to measure axial vibrations, as there is often not much space here due to screens for rotating parts, etc.
TOP exit: Here, the outlet for the plug is fitted at the top.
SIDE exit: Here is the output to the connector on the side of the connector. This accelerometer is therefore not as high when mounted.
Calibration and sensitivity
All our accelerometers come with a calibration certificate. We recommend that they be calibrated annually, which can be done by simply sending them to us.
When ordering a sensor, you need to consider the frequency range you want to measure, whether it is low-frequency or high-frequency measurements. And whether you want to measure a lot or a little vibration. All of this affects the sensitivity of the sensor and thus the output, which is mV/g.

4-20 mA sensor and capsules for machine builders
We also have sensors with 4-20 mA for direct use with PLCs. In addition, we have sensors in capsule form, which are compact and can be built into your own sensor or casing.
