Model 9155C
9155C
The
Model 9155C features accurate back-to-back comparison calibrations of ICP (IEPE) and charge mode piezoelectric accelerometers in accordance with ISO 5347-3. Benefits of the Model 9155C form in two areas: conformance to existing standards and automation of the calibration task. The system is designed to perform accelerometer calibrations emulating the procedure in ISO 5347-3 for secondary calibrations. Hardcopy printed certificates fulfill the requirements set forth by ISO 17025 for calibration certificates. The system also calculates measurement uncertainty according to ISO 5347-3. The automation afforded by the easy to use Windows software provides for simplified calibration procedures, as test parameters are stored and recalled automatically for each accelerometer. This makes for 'hands-off' operation once the sensor is mounted. Even faster data acquisition is possible when using broadband excitation (option 9155C-200). The Model 9155C is a turn-key solution, providing all necessary system components 'out-of-the-box'. Principle components are the Windows PC controller, printer, data acquisition hardware, reference accelerometer, shaker table, and signal conditioning. Use the 9155C as your first step toward conforming to vibration calibration requirements!

9155C
The 9155Cs use of a dedicated vibration exciter provides a high quality vibration environment for accurate calibrations. ISO standard 5347-3 outlines the back-to-back configuration in which the Sensor Under Test (SUT) and the Standard Reference Accelerometer are subjected to identical input accelerations. Consequently, the ratio of the two SPECIFICATIONS:
Frequency Range Typical Measurement Uncertainty* Calibration Method Measurements Accelerometers Supported Sensors Supported TEDS Sensor Support Excitation Type Acceleration Levels Max. Displacement Reference Frequencies Calibration Data Management Automatic pass/fail Classification Measurement Units Dimensions
transducers sensitivities are simply the ratio of their measured outputs. A comparison is performed by the control software, while obtaining the measured outputs at every frequency. On-line calculation of the sensitivity and phase of the SUT takes place in parallel to displaying the result on the screen.
