Automotive development is under sustained pressure to deliver faster correlation and higher confidence test data across NVH, powertrain electrification, and durability / Road Load Data Acquisition (RLDA) programmes. In that context, teams increasingly need sensors that are small, rugged, stable…
The rapid transition to high-voltage (HV) architectures in electric vehicles (EVs) has introduced a critical challenge for test engineers: how to measure mechanical durability safely in environments reaching up to 2,000 VDC. As battery packs and drive systems become more…
If your e‑powertrain endurance rig is tripping on vibration thresholds with the inverter energised, don’t blame the accelerometer first. In real rigs, the dominant EMI path is often the cable/connector, not the sensor mounting point. Your internal ground shows broadband…
The Endevco® 7262A is a rugged, gas‑damped, DC‑response piezoresistive accelerometer with amplified output. It is engineered for long‑duration transient shocks and high‑level events common to EV powertrain abuse tests, sled/impact studies, and aerospace component/LRU qualification. A compact, epoxy‑sealed body with…
In aircraft component and LRU qualification, long harness runs and proximity to switching power electronics make cable‑borne EMI the silent spoiler. Even with ground‑isolated or case‑isolated sensors, spectra can be corrupted if the shield path is discontinuous or bonded via…
