The Kistler 8794A500 is a triaxial accelerometer that measures shock and vibration in three mutually perpendicular axes. It is designed in a unique flat package and built in a welded, environmentally sealed, stainless steel case, providing years of reliable operation. This sensor is available as a 8794A500M5 version, featuring a higher operating temperature up to 330°F (165°C) and in a 8794A500M3 version with a low end frequency point of 1Kz.

Kistler's K-Shear design provides a wide operating frequency range along with extremely low sensitivity to thermal transients and transverse acceleration. Quartz sensing elements are used in this sensor to ensure long-term stabilitysuperior to other sensing materials. Three integral Piezotron® impedance converters provide a low impedance voltage output, eliminating the need for charge amplifiers. The voltage output also eliminates the need for expensive, highly isulated low-noise cables.

The output wires are soldered to terminals outside the case and covered by a molded strain relief cover. This unique electrical connection provides the advantages of an integral cable but permits replacement of damanged output wires.
