QA700 Q-Flex® Accelerometer 

  PDF Datasheet | Request Info 

  • For Q-Flex technology in an economical temperature-compensated package, Honeywell produces the QA700 for a broad array of moderate performance applications, including tactical missile navigation, high-speed train car leveling, building tilt and sway monitoring, and seismic sensing. 

  • As with the entire Q-Flex family of accelerometers, the QA700 features a patented Q-Flex etched-quartz-flexure seismic system. An amorphous quartz proof-mass structure provides excellent bias, scale factor, and axis alignment stability.
    The integral electronics develops an acceleration-proportional output current providing both static and dynamic acceleration measurement. By use of a customer supplied output load resistor, appropriately scaled for the acceleration range of the application, the output current can be converted into a voltage. 

  • As an option, the QA700 can be provided with a temperature-compensating algorithm where bias, scale factor, and axis misalignment performance are dramatically improved.
