TE Sensor Solutions LDT1-028K Piezo Sensors

TE Sensor Solutions LDT1-028K Piezo Sensor is a versatile device designed for detecting physical phenomena such as vibration or impact. These sensors features a piezoelectric polymer element laminated to a polyester (Mylar) sheet, which generates an electrical signal when subjected to forces. The sensor includes dual wire leads for easy integration with circuits or monitoring devices. These sensors with a minimum impedance of 1MΩ and preferred impedance of 10MΩ and higher operates effectively across a wide temperature range from 0°C to +70°C. The sensor finds applications in sensing direct contact force, recording event durations, counting impacts, and detecting motion and vibration.
