Universal Accelerometers
Metra Mess- und Frequenztechnik in Radebeul e.K.
There are models with charge output and with IEPE compatible voltage output. The transducers of KS series have a shear type sensing element making them less susceptible to thermal transients and base strain. The accelerometers of KD series have a compression type sensing element combining rugged design, precision and low cost.

Miniature Accelerometers
Metra Mess- und Frequenztechnik in Radebeul e.K.
These piezoelectric accelerometers are particularly suited for small and light test objects. Of particular advantage may also be their high resonant frequencies. Due to the piezoelectric principle with its wide dynamic range both high acceleration and lowest vibration can be measured with the same sensor.

High Sensitivity Accelerometers
Metra Mess- und Frequenztechnik in Radebeul e.K.
The piezoelectric accelerometers on this page are intended for the measurement of lowest vibrations. Typical fields of application include the monitoring of buildings, dams, bridges, oil platforms and pipelines. These sensors are often called seismic accelerometers because they are used to monitor construction activity, volcanoes and earthquakes. Their high sensitivity is achieved -unlike other high sensitivity accelerometers- by the sensing element itself and not by internal amplification. From this results highest resolution and lowest noise.

Triaxial Accelerometers
Metra Mess- und Frequenztechnik in Radebeul e.K.
Triaxial accelerometers are intended for simultaneous measurement of vibration in 3 perpendicular axis. All models have a central drilling for easy screw attachment and convenient axis alignment.

Industrial Accelerometers
Metra Mess- und Frequenztechnik in Radebeul e.K.
These piezoelectric vibration transducers have been designed for application under rough environmental conditions. They are dust and water protected. Their mounting base is insulated to avoid ground loops which may cause errors, particularly, close to big machinery.

Special Accelerometers
Metra Mess- und Frequenztechnik in Radebeul e.K.
This page shows vibration sensors for special applications.The Seat Pad Accelerometer Model KS963B100-S was developed for measuring whole body vibration transmitted by driver seats of building machines and other vehicles in compliance with ISO 10326-1 and ISO 7096. The sensor has an IEPE output for robust signal transmission.
