5 Critical Specifications That Determine the Success or Failure of Industrial Accelerometer Selection (With Comparison Table)

Introduction Industrial accelerometers are vital for monitoring vibration, shock, and motion in harsh environments—from heavy machinery to aerospace systems. However, selecting the wrong sensor can lead to inaccurate data, equipment failure, or costly downtime. This blog breaks down the 5 key specifications that define accelerometer performance and provides actionable insights to guide your selection process.   1. Measurement Range (±g) Why It Matters: The measurement range defines the maximum acceleration force (in g-force) the sensor can accurately detect. Exceeding this limit causes signal clipping or sensor damage. Key Considerations: 2. Sensitivity (mV/g or pC/g) Why It Matters: Sensitivity determines how effectively the sensor converts mechanical motion into an electrical signal. Higher sensitivity suits low-frequency vibrations; lower sensitivity avoids saturation in high-g environments. Trade-offs:   3. Frequency Response Why It Matters: The frequency range (Hz) a sensor can a
