Product overview
The BBVM-RS100 is a single-axis IEPE piezoelectric accelerometer with a side-exit connection, designed for vibration measurements where overhead clearance is limited or the cable must run parallel to the mounting surface. It combines a piezoelectric ceramic sensing element, a shear-mode design, a sealed metal housing, and integrated signal conditioning. The standard model provides a sensitivity of 100 mV/g and a measurement range of ±50 g, with additional high-g, standard-range, and high-sensitivity configurations available.
