  • Page 6: Introduction

    Total Customer Satisfaction Guarantee introduction The 422E series in-line charge converters are designed to convert the high impedance of a charge mode piezoelectric transducer to a low-impedance voltage by means of an ICP ® signal conditioner. These units may be used with either quartz or ceramic charge-mode piezoelectric sensors. description The 422E series in-line charge amplifiers operate from an ICP ®...
  • Page 7: Calculation Of Output Scaling

    Total Customer Satisfaction Guarantee calculation of output scaling The 422E contains a high-gain, low-noise amplifier connected in a charge amplifier configuration. The charge output of the transducer is transferred to the feedback capacitor of the amplifier to develop a voltage which may be calculated using the following equation. = 422E Scaling (mV/pC) x Transducer Sensitivity (pC/Engineering Unit) where: = Output of 422E in mV/Engineering Unit...
  • Page 8: Special Considerations

    For example, the level for a 422E02/E12 would be 10,000/10 pF = 1,000 pF, and the level for a 422E03/E13 would be 10,000 pF. If PCB 003 type low noise cable is used, these values correspond to 10 meters and 100 meters of length respectively.

    2 – ESD sensitivity This equipment is designed with user safety in mind; however, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired if the equipment is used in a manner not specified by PCB Piezotronics, Inc. caution 1 – ESD sensitivity Cables can kill your equipment.
  • Page 10: Warranty, Service & Return Procedure

    Total Customer Satisfaction Guarantee caution 2 – ESD sensitivity ESD considerations should be made prior to performing any internal adjustments on the equipment. Any piece of electronic equipment is vulnerable to ESD when opened for adjustments. Internal adjustments should therefore be done ONLY at an ESD-safe work area. Many products have ESD protection, but the level of protection may be exceeded by extremely high voltage.
