Product Portfolio
  • Accelerometers

  • herborne Sensors’ manufactures a range of high precision accelerometer sensors to measure linear acceleration and deceleration with accuracy and reliability. Our sensors are used in demanding space, aviation, military and industrial applications around the world.
      • Servo: A215 accelerometer, voltage o/p miniature size, pin termination

      • The Sherborne Sensors’ A200 range of Servo Accelerometers measure vector acceleration with high accuracy using a closed loop force balance torquer mechanism. A pendulous mass develops a torque proportional to the product of its mass unbalance and the applied acceleration. The movement of the mass is detected by a position sensor whose output signal is connected to a servo amplifier.

        The resulting current is fed into the torque motor which then develops a torque exactly equal to, but directly opposed to the initial torque from the pendulous mass. The mass then stops moving, assuming a position minutely differing from it’s initial zero ‘g’ position. Simultaneously, the current to the torque motor is fed through a stable resistor to provide an output voltage proportional to the applied acceleration.

        The system is electronically damped by means of a phase advancing network within the integrated servo amplifier. By adjusting the parameters of the servo amplifier and related electronic networks, the operating characteristics of a servo accelerometer can be optimised to suit a particular application.

      • Using the same torquer mechanism and servo electronics as the A220 series, the A260 features a switching regulator to enable direct operation from a single ended dc power supply. Galvanic isolation between primary and secondary circuits provides total electrical isolation between the input supply and signal output. To meet certain measuring requirements, especially in certain aerospace applications, this series has provision for an optional active filter with low output impedance and 1g bias circuitry for vertical mounting.

        The A260 series accelerometers have been used successful in aerospace, military and industrial applications for many decades. The acquisition of this technology by Sherborne Sensors allows customers to benefit from the same exceptional product qualities as its predecessors, with the added benefits of extensive applications engineering support, global technical sales presence, repair, refurbishment and calibration services, stocking programs, and continuous product improvements.

            • Transport

            • Modes and options for transportation of goods and people continue to evolve. Recently, both private industry and governments have recognized models based primarily on individual modes of transportation are not sustainable; both from an economic and environmental perspective. A mixture of individual and mass transportation solutions are needed. Accordingly, funds directed towards these solutions have increased dramatically, along with their technical requirements.

              Two segments of transportation that represent keen interest are rail and barge. Both offer the opportunity to move large numbers of people and goods in significantly more efficient ways than individual cars, trucks or ships.

              Sherborne Sensors is assisting leading manufacturers of these platforms and their customers by providing sensors for a variety of applications, such as inclinometers to monitor barge loading and unloading activities to ensure safe operations; vibration monitors for engine and drive line systems to proactively assist in identifying possible maintenance issues; angle analysis systems to verify rail track properties and conditions to ensure safe passage of both freight and passenger loads; and accelerometers to protect passengers and freight by modulating train acceleration and deceleration protocols.
