Crossbow Accelerometers

CXL-GP Series General Purpose Accelerometer

The GP Series accelerometers are low cost, general purpose, linear acceleration and/or vibration sensors available in ranges of ±4g, ±10g, and ±25g. Common applications are automotive testing, instrumentation, and equipment monitoring. The GP Series sensing element is a silicon micro-machined capacitive beam. The capacitive beam is held in force balance for full scale non-linearity of less than 0.2%.

The GP Series offers wide dynamic range, has excellent frequency response, operates on a single 4.9 to 5.5 VDC power supply, and is easy to interface to standard data acquisition systems. Alternatively, by specifying the -R option, an unregulated 5.5 to 36 V power supply can be used.
