Description
The WAP01 Piezoelectric Acceleration Sensor exploits the piezoelectric effect of piezoelectric ceramics. When the sensitive core is vibrated, it generates electric charges on the material's surface. When the vibration frequency is much lower than the sensor's natural frequency, the amount of charge is proportional to the acceleration. By measuring the charge, the acceleration value can be obtained.
Application
- Industrial Machinery: Used for vibration monitoring in industrial equipment to detect potential failures and ensure smooth operation.
- Vehicle Monitoring: Applied in vehicles to monitor the vibration of components, helping to improve vehicle performance and safety.
Features
- Self-powered Operation: Eliminates the need for external power supply, simplifying installation and reducing costs.
- Wide Frequency Range: Offers a broad frequency response from 1 to 10000Hz, making it suitable for a wide variety of vibration monitoring tasks.
- Cost-effective: Provides high performance at a reasonable price, offering excellent value for money.
- Reliable Grounding: The signal ground is connected to the housing, ensuring stable signal transmission.

Technical Support:
Customized technical design and function, LOGO and package are available without extra charge (including molding fee) for mass volume.
The sensors don't have sleeping mode. It can be set in program if needed.
All Winsen products go through strict inspections and tests to make sure they are 100% qualified before shipping out.
The sensor has been fully tested (not calibrated) before leaving the factory, but the module will be calibrated before leaving the factory.
However, after transportation and storage, the environment conditions change, and the surface of the sensor absorbs moisture, mixed gas, pollution matters, etc. It is recommended that customers perform aging and calibration after sensors become stable according to the program and use occasions of the whole device.
15﹪-90﹪RH without condensation,greater or less than this range or long-term high temperature and high humidity will affect the life of the sensor.
Our sensors are certified with CE, 3C, ROHS, anti-explosion, fire prevention, and coal mining safety according to different applications. And we provide assistance for new certification.
Many factors can cause the sensor to fail such as broken wires in transportation, poisoning, falling off of the sensitive material, damage to the heating wire (device), etc. Please find specific cause in each category with Winsen’s aftersales.
Winsen provides professional consultation and service before and after sales. We will recommend the best fitting sensor for your demand. If you have any problem, don’t hesitate to email us to sales@winsensor.com
Due to high volume of daily incoming emails and time zone difference, we may not be able to reply your emails immediately. But we will reply to your inquiry in 24 business hours.
