Acceleration Transducers

Terminology Commentary
Centroid (Center of Seismic Mass) Location of the center of gravity where acceleration is concentratedly applied.
Damping Ratio Ratio of actual damping to critical damping
Transverse Sensitivity The Transverse Sensitivity is expressed in percentage for Rated Output by the ratio of X which is transducer output by the acceleration on a parallel plane at right angles for a sensitivity axis, and Y which is transducer output by the acceleration to a parallel sensitivity axis.
Sensitive Axis Axis in the sensitive direction of acceleration transducer
Mounted Resonance Frequency Resonance frequency measured by mounting the transducer to a shaker.
