Operational Highlights
The model 2227 input axis is perpendicular to the PCB. The seismic center is located at the center of the PCB inside the LCC accelerometer, approximately 0.110 inches (2.75 mm) above the top of the PCB, the reference surface for the 2227.
The Model 2227 generates an output current, the value of which varies with acceleration as shown in the adjacent figure.
