    Moța Florin
    The EpiSensor ES-U2 is a uniaxial accelerometer designed for structural engineering applications to measure accelerations up to ±4g. It has a wide bandwidth of DC to 200Hz and low noise to detect low-level vibrations. The user can select the full-scale recording range between ±0.25g to ±4g and output type. The sensor requires no external electronics and provides an amplified, conditioned signal to data acquisition systems.

    EpiSensor ES-U2

    Uniaxial Force Balance Accelerometer

    For use in a variety of applications The sensor has a number of full scale outputs to match the traditional
    Kinemetrics earthquake recording instruments, as well as the most modern
    The EpiSensor ES-U2 force balance accelerometer is a uniaxial surface Kinemetrics’ Rock+ series and Quanterra’s Q330 series of dataloggers.
    package designed primarily for structural engineering applications.
    However, it can be used in a variety of applications for measuring EpiSensor force balance accelerometers are also available in triaxial surface and
    accelerations up to ±4g and down to the ambient noise level. With borehole (the FBA ES-SB shallow and FBA ES-DH deep) packages.
    full-scale recording ranges of ± 0.25 to ± 4g (user selectable) the ES-U2
    provides on-scale recording of earthquake motions even at near-fault
    locations and in a wide variety of structure types.

    Because the ES-U2 is extremely low-noise, it can detect motions of the


    ambient vibration field at most urban sites and civil structures from 1 Hz
    to 200A Hz. This makes the ES-U2 a unique sensor at a great price. The
    output of the ES-U2 is an amplified, conditioned signal—it requires no FEATURES
    external electronics other than a data acquisition system.

    The significantly improved bandwidth of DC to 200 Hz allows engineers


    • Low noise
    and scientists to study motions at higher frequencies while maintaining
    the very important DC response that allows simple field calibration and
    reduces processing confusion. • Extended bandwidth - DC to 200Hz

    Output circuitry is also significantly enhanced. Four types of outputs can • User-selectable full-scale range
    be field-selected by the user: ± 2.5V single-ended, ± 10V single-ended, ±
    5V differential or ± 20V differential. • Calibration coil (standard)

    • Single-end or differential output (user selectable)
