The Jewell Instruments LCF-200 Series Accelerometer is a ±0.5G to ±5G device designed for applications where
high levels of shock and vibration are present. LCF units are characterized by excellent turn on
repeatability and very low hysteresis. Linear accelerometers are solid-state, DC, closed-loop, force
balanced acceleromters with accuracy, stability and reliability several orders of magnitude great than
open-loop types.
These are pendulous devises unbalanced for linear acceleration. Linear acceleration applied and acting
on unbalanced mass will develop a torque. By arranging the mass so that any resultant motion develops an
electrical signal which is properly amplified and supplied to an electrical torque generator acting on
the mass, equilibrium is produced between the two torquers.
Applications for the LCF-200 Series include:
Geophysical testing
Railcar acceleration control
Platform orientation
