A capacitive-based acceleration transducer, or capacitive accelerometer is a sensor that detects acceleration by measuring changes in electrical capacitance caused by the movement of an internal mass. These devices convert mechanical motion into a measurable electrical signal and are widely used in applications from smartphone screen rotation to vehicle airbag deployment systems.
Our range of strain gauge and capacitive-based acceleration transducers convert the acceleration of running vehicles or the vibration of car body or machinery into voltage to enable accurate measurement of acceleration or vibration. Each model is compact and lightweight and ensures superior static and dynamic characteristics. Various rated capacity models cover a wide scope of applications. In addition, tri-axial models are available for simultaneous detection of acceleration in directions X, Y and Z.
