Accelerometer

Accelerometer 5.0 is a wireless, battery-powered sensor designed to monitor structural vibrations on three axes with high resolution and flexible acquisition logic. It supports four operating modes, synchronized programmed campaigns for modal analysis, low-latency fast trigger events, and waveform-based acquisitions for deeper diagnostics. With selectable full scale up to ±8.192 g, internal data logging, offline recording, and seamless integration with MyMove, it is built for long-term dynamic monitoring in real site conditions. It also lets users align sensor axes with the structure’s longitudinal, transversal, and vertical directions, with automatic or manual vertical-axis definition.

Wireless connectivity

Long-range, low-power data transmission ideal for remote and large-scale sites.

Long-term battery autonomy

Multi-year operation with adjustable sampling and transmission settings.

Full remote configuration

Configure settings, calibrate sensors, and manage alarm thresholds, all in one platform.

Durable hardware

Built for reliable use in harsh environments.

Everything you need, built in

Accelerometer 5.0 expands what a wireless accelerometer can do in the field. It adapts to different acquisition strategies, different installation constraints, and different diagnostic needs without adding complexity to deployment.

Four acquisition modes for different monitoring strategies

Choose between Standard Trigger with waveform, Fast Trigger for low-latency event detection, Programmed mode for synchronized campaigns, or Programmed + Fast Trigger when both scheduled monitoring and event tracking are needed on the same node

Structure-aware axis configuration

Map X, Y, and Z sensor axes to the structure’s longitudinal, transversal, and vertical directions. The vertical axis can be identified automatically from gravity or set manually from the platform, making data interpretation more consistent across installations with different orientations.

Built for synchronized modal analysis

Programmed acquisitions can be synchronized across multiple sensors with accuracy up to ≤ 500 µs, enabling reliable time-aligned datasets for modal analysis, frequency-domain assessment, and advanced structural diagnostics in MyMove.

Designed for longer deployments and real site conditions

Store data locally in circular memory, enable offline recording when connectivity is unavailable, extend battery life with an external battery pack, and simplify installation with a two-piece mounting plate, optional L-shaped bracket, and protected short-antenna configuration.

What this sensor measures

Triaxial acceleration

Measures dynamic acceleration on three orthogonal axes, with selectable full scale from ±128 mg to ±8.192 g and sampling rates from 40 to 640 Hz.

Event statistics

Returns RMS, minimum, and maximum values for each acquisition, enabling fast interpretation of event severity and structural response.

Waveform and frequency-domain analysis

In Standard Trigger and Programmed modes, the sensor provides full waveform data that can be used for deeper event review, FFT processing, and dynamic interpretation in MyMove.

Temperature

Records temperature at acquisition time to add environmental context to structural measurements and diagnostics.

Frequently asked questions

Accelerometer 5.0 measures dynamic acceleration on three axes and temperature. Depending on the selected operating mode, it can return peak and RMS values only, or full waveform data for more advanced vibration analysis.

The sensor supports Standard Trigger, Fast Trigger, Programmed, and Programmed + Fast Trigger. This allows users to choose between waveform-based event capture, low-latency event detection, synchronized scheduled acquisitions, or a combined strategy on the same device.

Yes. In Programmed mode, sensors with matching settings can acquire synchronized data with accuracy up to 500 microseconds between nodes, making the device suitable for distributed modal analysis campaigns.

Yes. The device supports local circular memory and offline recording, so data can still be collected even when the gateway connection is not available.

The sensor supports wall, floor, or ceiling installation, standard double or L-shaped mounting plates, short or long antenna options, and a protective dome for exposed environments. Axis orientation can also be configured from MyMove to match the structure's real geometry.

Battery life depends on configuration and radio conditions. As a reference, the sensor can operate for about 2 years in Programmed mode with a 1-hour cadence on internal battery only, and about 5 years and 9 months with the optional battery pack in the same scenario.
