The Jewell Instruments LCA-100 Series Accelerometer is a general-purpose ±0.5G to ±5G device designed for industrial, commercial and aerospace sensing requirements. The LCA Series Linear Accelerometers are solid state, DC, closed-loop, force-balanced accelerometers with accuracy, stability and reliability several orders of magnitude greater than open-loop types. They are ideally suited to the precise requirements of inertial guidance and control systems.

Linear acceleration applied and acting on unbalanced mass will develop a torque. By arranging the mass so that any resultant motion develops an electrical signal which is properly amplified and supplied to an electrical torque generator acting on the mass, equilibrium is produced between the two torquers.

Applications for the LCA-100 Series include:

  • Aircraft flight controls
  • Fatigue monitoring
  • Performance testing
