FEATURING: Precision Linear & Angular Accelerometers

All Jewell force-balanced (servo) precision accelerometers are fully self-contained. They connect to a DC power source
and a readout or control device for a complete operating system. The output is a high-level DC signal proportional to
acceleration and tilt angle sine from as little as ±0.010g to ±20g full range. Jewell precision accelerometers respond

to change in velocity as small as 1µg. Hysteresis is less than 0.0005% of full range output and vibration rectication

is less than 50µG/G2 are available. Review the products in this guide for more information.
