OPERATING GUIDE
MINIATURE 3049E SERIES IEPE ACCELEROMETERS
10 mV/g AND 100 mV/g
HERMETICALLY SEALED AND CASE ISOLATED
NOTE:
Series 3049E Series features hermetically sealed construction
and electrically isolated case for "off-ground" performance.
Hermeticity is obtained by all-welded construction and glass-tometal sealed connector. Case material is titanium. Signal
ground return is electrically isolated from the mounting surface.
This guide contains:
1) Operating Instructions, Series 3049E Series.
2) Outline/installation drawing, Series 3049E Series
3) Specifications, Series 3049E Series
4) Paper, "Low Impedance Voltage Mode (LIVM) Theory and
Operation”
NOTE: IEPE is an acronym for Integrated Electronics Piezoelectric types of low impedance voltage mode sensors
with built-in amplifiers operating from constant current sources over two wires. IEPE instruments are compatible
with most other manufacturers’ comparable systems.
