Meggitt Sensing Systems, a Meggitt
group division, has introduced the
Endevco model 2262A, a highly
rugged, hermetically sealed, critically
damped piezoresistive shock
accelerometer with 500mV full scale
output, designed to support
automotive, aerospace and general
in-house laboratory structural,
environmental, and
impact testing
requirements,
including transient
acceleration
measurements on
structural
members.

With available
ranges of 1000g
pk and 2000g
pk, the
Endevco model
2262A series
incorporates Meggitt’s own
semiconductor strain gauge elements
in a bridge configuration, allowing
for low-impedance output with 10
VDC excitation.
