Shock Sensor — SQ-ASB
The SQ-ASB series sensor is a normally closed acceleration swtich. It is designed to be sensitive in all directions. It is about 4 times more sensitive off axis than on axis. Typical cross axis open signals are in the 2 – 8 mS range, where on axis open signals are proportional to the duration of acceleration above the threshold. NOTE: If better accuracy is required, choose the cross axis specification that matches your requirements and use two sensors at 90 degrees to one another, logically “OR”d together.
