Sensor Selection for Human Vibration Meters

Hand-Arm, Whole Body, and General Vibration Tests | Model HVM200

It is important to select an accelerometer that provides the measurement range needed for the vibration environment being tested. An adapter should also be chosen that allows for the measurement of vibration as close as possible to the location where vibration is transferred to the body. For applications where there is a need to measure lower vibration levels, the higher sensitivity SEN041F, 1 mV/(m/s²), can be used. The guide below shows recommend sensor and adapter combinations for a variety of common measurement applications.
