Specification

The Kistler Type 8310A K-Beam accelerometer series utilizes a silicon micro-machined variable capacitance sensing element. This high performance, solid state sensor is ideally suited for applications requiring the measurement of low level acceleration in a steady-state or low frequency environment. In addition to the acceleration signal, the sensor provides an output signal proportional to temperature for performance compensation. K-Beam performance is similar to larger servo accelerometers at a substantially lower price.
