Kistler Model 8614A Picotron® Miniature Accelerometers
Kistler series 8614A accelerometers are
extremely small and light weight and very high resonant frequencies and built-in low impedance Piezotron circuit electronics.
Piezotron electronics minimize cable noise and eliminate the need for highly insulated cables. The solder pin connectors
enable easy repair of any cables that may become damaged in use.
Contained within the housing is a piezoelectric
system consisting of a siesmic mass preloaded to a quartz element and miniature hybrid electronics. This combination yields
a high level, low impedance output signal proportional to the accelerating stimulus.Signal and DC excitation power to the
unit are conducted through a twisted pair of six-foot wires. This simple power signal circuitry makes it possible to check
with ease the circuit's integrity. Power and signal processing to the accelerometer can be provided by any one of the 5100
series couplers.
