USB Programmable Smart Vibration Switch The Smart Alternative to Mechanical Vibration Switches! PCB® Piezotronics, Inc., launches the all new, industry exclusive Model 686B01 Smart Vibration Switch. The electronic Smart Vibration Switch is versatile; fully USB user programmable, competitively priced, and directly replaces most popular mechanical vibration switches. The Smart Vibration Switch requires only two wires for operation, which eliminates the need to run additional cables, and with Remote Reset AnywhereTM, climbing your cooling tower to reset a tripped switch is now no longer necessary. The Smart Vibration Switch also provides a significantly lower cost solution for many electronic vibration switch applications requiring single relay operation. PCB® Releases a Series of In-Line Rotary Torque Sensor Systems in the UKNew TORKDISC® for Automotive Powertrain Development Applications![]() PCB Automotive Sensors Division introduces their 5300D TORKDISC® series of In-line Rotary Torque Sensor Systems designed for test applications requiring a robust rotary torque transducer where axial space is at a premium. The new transducer uses a field proven electronic module that converts the torque signals into a high-speed digital signal. Once in digital form, this data is transmitted to a non-contact pick-up loop, eliminating the risk of noise or data corruption. A remote receiver unit converts the digital data to a high-level analogue output voltage, and a serial digital output. PCB Piezotronics Announces New Wheel Force Transducer SeriesFor Automotive Road Load Data Acquisition Applications![]() Novi, Michigan – January 23, 2009 – PCB Automotive Sensors Division introduces Series 5400 Wheel Force Transducers (WFT), for road load data acquisition applications. Designed as rugged one-piece units that mount between the vehicle hub and the wheel rim, these units deliver highly accurate measurements and superior performance in a durable water-resistant package. Units are available in a wide variety of sizes for vehicles including passenger cars; light-, medium- and heavy-duty trucks; commercial vehicles including tractor trailers, buses, agricultural, and earth-moving equipment; and military vehicles. PCB Piezotronics, Inc. Introduces New High Temperature Acoustic Measurement SystemNominated for the 2009 International MessTec & Sensor Masters Award PCB Automotive Sensors – a division of PCB Piezotronics, Inc., a world leader in vibration, acoustic, pressure, force, and torque sensors, is pleased to announce new Model HT378B02 ½ inch ICP® Low-Noise, High temperature Acoustic Measurement System. PCB® Model HT378B02 is the world’s first IEC-compliant microphone and preamplifier system that is used by test engineers to measure sound amplitude (in Pascals or Decibels) and perform frequency analysis. This PCB® innovative breakthrough in technology allows this unit to be used to 120 °C operating temperatures, reducing the need for high-priced probe microphones; as well as to test to its maximum frequency specifications. This system is ideal for obtaining accurate measurements in and around a vehicle’s engine, manifold, underhood, exhaust pipe and other hot spots associated with powertrain and vehicle systems NVH testing. PCB® Model HT378B02 has been nominated most innovative new sensor product for the MessTec & Sensor Masters 2009 Award.
