Gentlemen,
Thank you for the inputs. To answer Brad's questions,
1. No, instrument will not be damaged.
2. I am fairly certain the in-use acceleraton environment is lower than acceleration when driving. I was planning to measure at rest, engine running no movement and car moving since the...
Greg,
The instrument will be sitting on the floor, not bolted to it. Since any number of vehicles can be used, integrating it into each car directly adds complexity. All I am looking for is rough order of magnitude numbers (ROM). I plan to go out and make some measurements with prototype...
Explaining my application will no doubt help. I have a piece of lab equipment that that I plan to take in a car to do some work. It can not be operated in measurment mode when the car is moving because of vibrations. There are times when the operator forgets to set instrument in standby mode...
Greetings, Can anyone provide a site that contains typical vibration spectra and loads when an auto is driving down the street and/or stationary with engine running? I understand there are a number of factors and variables, but I just need to get a feel for typical numbers.
Thanks
