  • Page 3 The Model 4623 accelerometer incorporates a rugged strain relief for demanding applications and is packaged in an anodized aluminum housing. Installation The model 4623 accelerometer is designed to be screw mounted but can also be adhesively mounted if the installation does not allow for screw mounting. Screw Mounting For screw mounting of accelerometers the following guidelines should be followed: ...
  • Page 4 Biaxial Mounting Configurations The model 4623 accelerometer has a unique housing that enables it to be mounted in two different orientations to measure either the normal or transverse acceleration input. By simply rotating the housing 90 degrees, the accelerometer can now be used to measure transverse motion. The two mounting orientations are illustrated below.
  • Page 5: Single Ended Output

    Operating Manual Wiring The accelerometer is designed to be operated from 7-30Vdc excitation and provide a ±2V full scale output with a 2.5V reference voltage. The output is DC-coupled and can be used in either single-ended or differential mode. Differential mode offers the best performance since common mode errors are minimized.
  • Page 6 Operating Manual Cable Routing The model 4623 accelerometer incorporates a FEP jacketed cable with an integral shield. The cable assembly should be properly secured at regular intervals during testing. It is recommended to use clamps, wax, or tape to secure the cable to minimize cable motion that can add noise to the output signal.
