The Jewell Instruments LCF-2530 Series is a dual axis accelerometer engineered to deliver high-accuracy servo technology in a compact, rugged package. Optimized for applications requiring precise measurement of acceleration along two orthogonal axes, it provides exceptional bias and scale factor stability while withstanding harsh operating conditions.

Built on the proven LCF platform, the LCF-2530 utilizes force-balanced servo technology to achieve superior linearity, low hysteresis, and long-term reliability. Its compact form factor makes it ideal for space-constrained installations where dual axis sensing is required. Key performance features include selectable full-scale ranges from ±0.5g to ±5.0g, a filtered bandwidth adjustable from 5 to 100 Hz, and high-level ±Vdc output for direct integration with data acquisition systems.

The sensor incorporates a built-in temperature sensor for compensation and monitoring, and its fluid-damped design ensures stable operation in dynamic environments. With a shock survival rating of 1,500g, the LCF-2530 is built to withstand the rigors of rail and industrial applications.

Typical applications include:

• Railcar acceleration and deceleration control
• Train performance testing and validation
• Active damping systems for vehicles and structures
• Rail car harshness (NVH) measurement
• Manual rail inspection and measurement
