Automotive NVH
Count X/Y/Z channels, define cable routing and set peak acceleration and temperature requirements at each mounting point.
IEPE ACCELEROMETERS / DYNAMIC TEST INSTRUMENTATION
Uniaxial and triaxial IEPE accelerometers, ICP® compatible sensor configurations and conditioning systems for NVH, modal analysis and vibration testing.
01 / CONFIGURE THE MEASUREMENT
Specify a single-axis IEPE accelerometer by sensitivity, usable frequency band, mounting and excitation. Compare 10–1000 mV/g request profiles.
Define your configuration →Plan three-axis IEPE measurements with 10 or 100 mV/g request profiles, 4-pin fan-out cabling, mounting and TEDS review.
Define your configuration →Define low-frequency dynamic measurements using high-sensitivity IEPE sensor request profiles, noise bandwidth and overload headroom.
Define your configuration →Plan an acoustic and vibration acquisition chain with prepolarized measurement microphones, IEPE preamplifiers and calibration requirements.
Define your configuration →Specify 1–8 channel IEPE constant-current conditioners or synchronous USB/Ethernet acquisition, with excitation, AC output and software review.
Define your configuration →02 / KEEP YOUR EXISTING ACQUISITION WORKFLOW
Bring your PCB, Brüel & Kjær / HBK, Dytran or Kistler model number. Compare electrical headroom, frequency response, mass, mounting and pin assignment before selecting an IEP configuration.
Open the replacement checklist →IEPE means Integrated Electronics Piezo-Electric. ICP® is PCB Piezotronics’ trademark for its integrated-electronics sensors. They use the same broad constant-current measurement principle; compatibility still depends on the actual sensor and input specifications.
Understand current, bias and AC signal →03 / PLAN THE ARRAY, INCLUDING THE DETAILS
Count X/Y/Z channels, define cable routing and set peak acceleration and temperature requirements at each mounting point.
Control mass loading, channel sensitivity and phase. Define the lowest mode and the record length before choosing a high-sensitivity sensor.
Check overload recovery, mounting stiffness and the high-frequency chain. Use the actual conditioner current and cable capacitance.
SPECIFICATION → CONFIGURATION REVIEW
Include the sensor, cable and acquisition input as one measurement chain. Request model-specific specifications and calibration scope with your quotation.
