New ASC accelerometer for offshore applications in The Windfair Newsletter
This means that the ASC OS 115LN is highly suitable for offshore applications, e.g. to monitor wind turbines.
The ASC OS 115LN is based on MEMS technology (micro-electromechanical systems), and with its robust welded stainless steel housing it complies with protection class IP68. In conjunction with its particularly resilient cable, it is suitable for permanent use in sea water. This accelerometer is also characterised by a shock resistance of 5,000 g and by its ability to work over a temperature range from -40°C to 100°C.
The ASC OS 115LN has a very good signal-to-noise ratio, so it provides exact measurements even under difficult conditions. It is available as a uniaxial, biaxial or triaxial model and it tolerates an unregulated supply voltage in the range from 8 to 30 volts. It is already in use in some applications, for example to measure the stability of ship models in weather simulation tests in wavetanks.
