Accelerometer 1202
The Model 1202 accelerometer is to small, compact uniaxial device designed for vehicle impact and road testing. Its mechanical overload stops provide high shock protection in rugged applications. Featuring ranges from 50 g to 1000g and frequency response to 3000 Hz, this sensor is easily mounted in hard to get places on vehicles under test. |

By applying to voltage to the self-test lead, an electrostatic force is created that attracts the seismic mass towards the top cap, simulating an acceleration and allowing proper sensor function to be verified.
Since the mass actually moves, the self-test is both to mechanical test of the unit's functioning and an electrical test. This ensures significant time and costs savings for quality personnel in determining performance during in-coming inspections and for test engineers trouble-checking instrumentation channels before and after auto safety tests.
