Model 1207 Accelerometer
DC Response
Durable Cable
Low Cost
Reliable Performance
The Model 1207 accelerometer is asmall, compact uniaxial device designed
for vehicle impact and road testing. Its
mechanical overload stops provide highshock protection in rugged applications.
Featuring ranges from 50g to 1000g andfrequency response to 3000 Hz, thissensor is easily mounted in hard to getplaces on vehicles under test.
