Vibration detection is one of the most applied (health) monitoring methods. Get direct insight in system behaviour and monitor deviations over time by measuring acceleration with Somni acceleration sensors. Our accelerometers are available in many shapes and sizes, each one with its own specifications.
The acceleration sensor mechanisms made by Somni are based on a decade of experience in transducer design. Our vibration sensors comprise of a proof-mass which is part of a compliant mechanism. Due to this robust monobody design the sensor response is robust and reliable. All transducers are frictionless and produce accurate signals regardless of g-level.
The sensor produces a flat response over its specified region and increases in sensitivity towards its resonance. Both sensitivity and phase show minor deviations up to at least 1/3 of the resonant frequency. This makes the sensor particularly suited for use in applications in which timing is important.
Each acceleration sensor is calibrated prior to shipment. Our standard calibration procedure generates a measurement report which include information on sensitivity, flatness and resonance. A calibration formula is provided to transform the optical signal into acceleration data.
Fiber Bragg Grating based single axis acceleration sensor, specifically designed to measure strong vibrations. This tiny accelerometer is ideally suited for monitoring of structures that vibrate fast and violent. All sensors are packaged in a rugged stainless steel housing offering maximum protection against harsh environments.
Acceleration sensor suitable for medium range and high sensitivity applications. This small form sensor is particularly suitable for monitoring of structures and machines that vibrate noticeable. All sensors are packaged in a rugged stainless steel housing offering maximum protection against harsh environments.
Acceleration sensor suitable for low range and extreme sensitivity applications. This sensor is particularly suitable for monitoring of structures with minimum vibrations or seismic surveying. All sensors are packaged in a rugged stainless steel housing offering maximum protection against harsh environments.
