Description
Type 8763B… is an IEPE (Integrated Electronics Piezoelectric)
triaxial accelerometer permitting vibration measurements in
three mutually perpendicular axes: x, y and z.
Type 8763B… uses Kistler shear element technology, assuring
high immunity to base strain. The welded titanium construction
provides a lightweight hermetic housing. The miniature 4 pin
ceramic insulated connector provides long-term stability over the
operating temperature range. An integral silicone cable variant
is available for application of underwater vibration testing
at up to 10 bars [150 psi]. In addition to adhesive mounting,
Type 8763B… has three 5–40 threaded holes for flexible stud
mounting on a test object, fully utilizing each mounting side
of the cube design. Additionally, three threaded holes provide
reliable mounting for calibration of each orthogonal axis. See
PiezoStar triaxial Type 8766A… for high temperature 165°C
[+330°F] and other frequency response options.

Application
Type 8763B… provides wide frequency response in each axis,
ideal for dynamic vibration measurements. It is well-suited for
lightweight structures. Kistler Type 1784B…K03 is a M4.5,
4 pin to 3x BNC breakout cable. In addition, the Kistler M4.5,
4 pin sensor connector can be adapted for use with traditional
¼–28, 4 pin compatible cables, using the Kistler Type 1784AK02
extension cable. Other ¼–28, 4 pin breakout cables include:
Type 1756C...K03/K04 and flexible Type 1734A…K03 cables.
