When accelerometer readings go wrong at low or high temperatures
[Inquiry]
Accelerometer readings are incorrect at low or high temperatures.
Is there any way to solve this problem?
When we were conducting a temperature test of -40°C ⇔ 100°C and a combined test, an error occurred twice in the vicinity of -40°C and 100°C room temperature.
The error occurred twice at -40°C and 100°C near normal temperature.
Both errors occurred at over-displacement +-.
[Solution]
Water contamination from the acceleration pickup connector port is a possible cause.
Waterproofing is required at the connector port when operating at temperature or when testing under conditions where condensation occurs.
Please refer to the instruction manual for the waterproofing method, which differs depending on the type of equipment.
