Description

The GTV-3 Velocity Sensor is engineered for consistent performance over a long lifetime.
Advanced computerized testing, manufacturing techniques and quality control are used in
the production process to provide both, the uniform parameters and the rugged qualities
required in modern velocity sensors.

The sensor module has proven itself successfully world-wide for many years in different
applications. The symmetrical rotating dual coil construction minimizes the force on the
spring arms. The use of precious metals ensures optimum electrical contact and a long
operating life.

The GTV-3 Velocity Sensor is a triaxial velocity sensor, operates from a wide range of input
voltages and could be used for a variety of civil engineering and general vibration measure-
ment applications.

The GTV-3 Velocity Sensor is housed in a very compact 193 x 112 x 94 mm case. The
sealed cast aluminum housing contains a MS style connector or a sealed cable inlet. The
housing also incorporates a single bolt mount with three levelling screws, which offers
extended adjusting capability during mounting.
