What is an Accelerometer?

An accelerometer is a precision electromechanical sensor that measures acceleration forces — including vibration, shock, tilt, and dynamic motion — along one or more axes. These forces can be static (such as gravitational pull) or dynamic (such as shock or vibration caused by machinery or structural movement), and are expressed in units of g (gravitational acceleration) or m/s². 

The demand for reliable accelerometers in Kerala has grown significantly across aerospace, defence, marine, civil infrastructure, electronics, and industrial sectors. At Proact IMS, we are among the most trusted accelerometer suppliers in Kerala, delivering high-sensitivity, ruggedised, and application-specific accelerometer solutions engineered for accuracy, durability, and seamless integration into modern test and measurement environments. 

  • Overview

    Modern industries depend on accelerometers in Kerala for vibration analysis, shock testing, structural health monitoring, and dynamic performance validation. A correctly selected and installed accelerometer improves measurement accuracy, reduces test cycle time, and enables real-time structural and mechanical insights across mission-critical applications.

  • Components of an Accelerometer System

    A complete accelerometer measurement system supplied by Proact IMS consists of: 

    • Accelerometer Sensor – Piezoelectric, MEMS, or piezoresistive sensing element 

    • Signal Conditioning Unit – Charge amplifiers, IEPE/ICP power supplies, and filters 

    • Mounting Hardware – Stud mounts, adhesive pads, magnetic bases, and triaxial mounting blocks 

    • Cables and Connectors – Low-noise coaxial cables with appropriate connector types (BNC, M12, LEMO) 

    • Data Acquisition System – Multi-channel DAQ for simultaneous signal capture and storage 

    • Measurement Software – For real-time display, FFT analysis, time-history recording, and reporting 

    • Communication Interface – Ethernet, USB, Wi-Fi, or CAN-bus connectivity
