Radiation-resistant accelerometers from Monitran
Monitran is launching the MTN/1100-R series of radiation-resistant constant current accelerometers. Developed for use in nuclear power stations, the sensors, which are top-entry and sealed to IP67, have a radiation resistance of 10Mrads and are well suited for long-term vibration monitoring in a variety of harsh radiation environments.
Andy Anthony, Managing Director of Monitran, comments: "As a manufacturer of sensors, and with our talented engineering department, we pride ourselves on being able to develop and make fit-for-purpose sensors, whatever the requirements."
Monitran's MTN/1100-R series accelerometers have a frequency response of 2Hz to 10kHz +/-5 per cent, a dynamic range of +/-80g and a standard sensitivity of 100mV/g; with other sensitivities available upon request. Mounting options include ¼"-28UNF, for the MTN/1100-R, and Monitran's own Quick Fit mount, for the MTN/1100Q-R.
The MTN/1100-R and MTN/1100Q-R radiation-resistant accelerometers are available immediately, and the MTN/1100-R series datasheet can be downloaded from www.monitran.com/products/mtn1100-r/.
