Custom scale factors and ranges 
                                     are available.


The triaxial kit includes three ARS-09 or ARS-09S sensors and a triaxial mounting block, which becomes a 6 degree-of-freedom measurement system with 3 optional linear accelerometers added to its mounting surfaces.  The type of linear accelerometers to be mounted must be specified at time of order to ensure correct mounting holes are included in the triaxial mount.

Notes:

1. Based on a ± 10V output voltage swing.
2. Based on a ± 3.5V output voltage swing.
3. Measured @ 10 Hz
.
4. The standard frequency response of MHD sensors can be extended
    significantly by the use of digital filtering in post processing of
    signal data as covered in ATA  Sensors' application note AN-01.


5. Power spectral density flat to angular velocity over specified 
    bandwidth.
6. Percent change in Scale Factor per ºC @ 100 Hz.
7. Signal return connected to case (isolated from mounting flange). 
    Do not ground case to mounting fixture to avoid ground loops.
8. Peak, 100 Hz half sine.
