Inertial Aerosystems product story
Edited by the Processingtalk editorial team
May 22, 2009
Inertial Aerosystems has introduced the Mini-Q, a small-diameter, high-temperature and shock-resistant accelerometer with enhanced temperature capability.
The Mini-Q has been designed primarily for down-hole measurement-while-drilling (MWD) applications in the gas and oil industries and also wireline environments that require a small form factor, such as the new generation of directional and horizontal drilling tools.
Mini-Q accelerometer
The Mini-Q accelerometer is manufactured by Honeywell and uses the low-noise, Q-Flex etched quartz proof flexure seismic system, modified for harsh environments.
Operating temperature is now -40C to 185C with intermittent capability of 200C.
The shock-operating/non-operating performance is -40C to 85C at 1,000g, 0.5msec and 85-185C at 400g, 0.5msec.
Input voltage is +/- 12VDC to +/- 18VDC with input current (quiescent) 8mA maximum, 6mA typical.
The device can be scaled to any full-scale range to 30g and has an analogue output with an internal temperature sensor, and fits into a 25.4mm tool diameter.
