The information contained in this document supersedes all similar information that
may be found elsewhere in this manual.
Service –Due to the sophisticated
nature of the sensors and associated
instrumentation provided by PCB
Piezotronics, user servicing or repair is
not recommended and, if attempted,
may void the factory warranty. Routine
maintenance, such as the cleaning of
electrical connectors, housings, and
mounting surfaces with solutions and
techniques that will not harm the
physical material of construction, is
acceptable. Caution should be observed
to ensure that liquids are not permitted
to migrate into devices that are not
hermetically sealed. Such devices
should only be wiped with a dampened
cloth and never submerged or have
liquids poured upon them.
Repair –In the event that equipment
becomes damaged or ceases to
operate, arrangements should be made
to return the equipment to PCB
Piezotronics for repair. User servicing or
repair is not recommended and, if
attempted, may void the factory
warranty.
Calibration –Routine calibration of
sensors and associated instrumentation
is recommended as this helps build
confidence in measurement accuracy
and acquired data. Equipment
calibration cycles are typically
established by the users own quality
regimen. When in doubt about a
calibration cycle, a good “rule of thumb”
is to recalibrate on an annual basis. It is
also good practice to recalibrate after
exposure to any severe temperature
extreme, shock, load, or other
environmental influence, or prior to any
critical test.
PCB Piezotronics maintains an ISO-
9001 certified metrology laboratory and
offers calibration services, which are
accredited by A2LA to ISO/IEC 17025,
with full traceability to SI through
N.I.S.T. In addition to the normally
supplied calibration, special testing is
also available, such as: sensitivity at
elevated or cryogenic temperatures,
phase response, extended high or low
frequency response, extended range,
leak testing, hydrostatic pressure
testing, and others. For information on
standard recalibration services or
special testing, contact your local PCB
Piezotronics distributor, sales
representative, or factory customer
service representative.
Returning Equipment –Following
these procedures will ensure that your
returned materials are handled in the
most expedient manner. Before
returning any equipment to PCB
Piezotronics, contact your local
distributor, sales representative, or
factory customer service representative
to obtain a Return Warranty, Service,
Repair, and Return Policies and
Instructions Materials Authorization
(RMA) Number. This RMA number
should be clearly marked on the outside
of all package(s) and on the packing
Service, Repair, and Return
Policies and Instructions

list(s) accompanying the shipment. A
detailed account of the nature of the
problem(s) being experienced with the
equipment should also be included
inside the package(s) containing any
returned materials.
A Purchase Order, included with the
returned materials, will expedite the
turn-around of serviced equipment. It is
recommended to include authorization
on the Purchase Order for PCB to
proceed with any repairs, as long as
they do not exceed 50% of the
replacement cost of the returned
item(s). PCB will provide a price
quotation or replacement
recommendation for any item whose
repair costs would exceed 50% of
replacement cost, or any item that is not
economically feasible to repair. For
routine calibration services, the
Purchase Order should include
authorization to proceed and return at
current pricing, which can be obtained
from a factory customer service
representative.
Contact Information –International
customers should direct all inquiries to
their local distributor or sales office. A
complete list of distributors and offices
can be found at www.pcb.com.
Customers within the United States may
contact their local sales representative
or a factory customer service
representative. A complete list of sales
representatives can be found at

description
The meter provides two types of measurements —overall acceleration and overall velocity. In the velocity mode,
the meter measures in the frequency range of 10 Hz to 1 kHz, and complies with ISO2954 standard. It measures
overall RMS velocity to a maximum of two inches per second. In acceleration mode, the meter measures in the
frequency range of 50 Hz to 50 kHz. The maximum overall RMS acceleration reading is 20 g’s. To toggle
between acceleration and velocity measurements, use the rocker switch labeled “ACC/VEL.”To turn the unit on,
move the rocker switch labeled “0/I/Bias”to the “I”position. The “0”position shuts the unit off, while the bias is a
momentary toggle for monitoring the bias voltage of the sensor.
The meter provides three input connectors that are located at the top of the unit. The input for the sensor (labeled
SENSOR) is a standard BNC Jack. The headphones can be connected through the 1/8 inch stereo jack (labeled
with the appropriate symbol), and the input for the recharger (labeled CHARGE) is a 2.5 mm plug.
The unit is powered by a 9-volt alkaline battery which is housed in the battery compartment located at the bottom
of the meter. To remove this cover, use a small standard screwdriver, pry the cover up, and the push it up
towards the top of the meter. Since the meter is supplied with alkaline batteries, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO
RECHARGE ALKALINE BATTERIES. IT MAY CAUSE A POTENTIAL FIRE AND/OR EXPLOSION.
The unit has a low battery indicator on the front panel LCD display. The indicator will light when the battery
voltage is approximately 7.5 volts. Please replace the battery or recharge the rechargeable battery if supplied.
If the optional recharger was purchased, plug-in the recharger in the appropriate connector located on the top of
the meter. Turn unit off, and plug the charger into an electrical outlet. Recharge the battery for approximately 12
hours.

warning 1 –ESD sensitivity
The power supply/signal conditioner should not be opened by anyone other than qualified service
personnel. This product is intended for use by qualified personnel who recognize shock hazards and are familiar
with the safety precautions required to avoid injury.
warning 2 –ESD sensitivity
This equipment is designed with user safety in mind; however, the protection provided by the equipment may be
impaired if the equipment is used in a manner not specified by PCB Piezotronics, Inc.
caution 1 –ESD sensitivity
Cables can kill your equipment. High voltage electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage electrical devices.
Similar to a capacitor, a cable can hold a charge caused by triboelectric transfer, such as that which occurs in the
following:
 Laying on and moving across a rug,
 Any movement through air,
 The action of rolling out a cable, and/or
 Contact with a non-grounded person.
The PCB solution for product safety:
 Connect the cables only with the AC power off.
 Temporarily “short”the end of the cable before attaching it to any signal input or output.
caution 2 –ESD sensitivity
ESD considerations should be made prior to performing any internal adjustments on the equipment. Any
piece of electronic equipment is vulnerable to ESD when opened for adjustments. Internal adjustments should
therefore be done ONLY at an ESD-safe work area. Many products have ESD protection, but the level of
protection may be exceeded by extremely high voltage.
