Calibration System for Medium and High Frequency Sensors

1.System Introduction and Application

When designing or using sensors, the frequency response characteristics and sensitivity of the sensor are quite important technical indicators.WS-5937Calibration System for Medium and High Frequency SensorsIt is designed specifically for calibrating the frequency response curve and sensitivity of speed and acceleration sensors. With this system, automatic closed-loop control of the "sensor frequency response curve calibration" can be achieved by computer. The frequency amplitude of the standard sensor and the calibrated sensor can be measured, and the frequency response and sensitivity of the calibrated sensor can be calculated. The calibration of the frequency response curve can be completed according to user requirements.

This system can be applied to metrology research institutes, vibration research laboratories, sensor research and production units, etc.

By utilizing proprietary technology, this system can also calibrate the sensitivity and frequency response curve of speed sensors (detectors), which are widely used in fields such as petroleum geophysical exploration and mechanical vibration monitoring in factories and mines.

11.Calibration question: Is the system accurate?

Regardless of whether the power amplifier and exciter used in the calibration system are domestic or imported instruments and equipment, the system always has nonlinearity. However, the sensor calibration adopts the comparison method (usually referred to as the "back-to-back method"), and the calibration is based on the standard sensor to calibrate other sensors. This system recommends using Denmark as the referenceB&Kcompany2Only standard sensors,B&K-4374SMainly used for calibrating the frequency response curve of sensors, andB&K-8305Mainly used for calibrating the sensitivity of sensors and the frequency response curve of low-frequency sensors, currently the domestic metrology department mainly adopts DenmarkB&K-8305As a standard sensor, DenmarkB&K-8305The sensor adoptsLaser absolute method calibration meets international standardsISO 16063-11 (previousISO 5347)The requirements.
