2.12 Sensors

2.12.1 Accelerometer

The Kistler Instruments K-BEAM 8304B2 is used for the QM (Range $\pm$2 g, Sensitivity = 1 V/g, zero of signal = 2.5 V, output voltage swing = 5 V).

For the FM a 8304M012 will be used (Range = $\pm$40 mg, Sensitivity 62.5 V/g, zero of signal = 0 V, output voltage swing = $\pm$2.5 V)

2.12.2 Tank Pressure Sensor

Bradford Engineering, the sensor itself is from Kristal Instruments and is a 9028.10.AA. Range 100 bar absolut.

2.12.3 Pipe Pressure Sensor

Same as the Tank Pressure Sensor.
