Instrumentation and Sensor Products
for Critical MIL-SPEC Applications.
|
ACT develops and produces sensors
and signal conditioning products for military and high-end
industrial applications. Our product offering includes
accelerometers, load cells, torque cells, signal conditioning
amplifiers and power amplifiers. Capabilities range from low noise
analog designs to full digital processing and firmware designs. Our
products regularly operate in environments requiring certification
to MIL-STD-810, MIL-STD-461/462, MIL-STD-704 and RTCA/DO-160.
ACT can rapidly develop your new products through our
vertically integrated prototype department and move them quickly into volume
production. The company operates an ISO-9001 compliant facility with
ANSI/J-STD-001 and MIL-HDBK-454 workmanship standards.
The company has been involved in military and high-end
industrial products for over 25 years and has all of the necessary equipment
for the design, manufacturing and testing of high performance sensors and
signal conditioning systems. We welcome your interest and look forward to
helping you solve your sensing needs. |
Sensor Products
Proven building block designs for
accelerometers, load cells, torque cells, angular rate and magnetic field
are used as cores for your custom application. Sensor applications include
inertial reference, autopilot, autonomous guidance, vibration monitoring,
image stabilization, active load control, tension monitoring and engine
monitoring. Sensors commonly have EMI filters, internal power supplies,
surge protection, integral amplifiers, filters, temperature compensation and
signal conditioning. Output signals can be analog voltages, current loops or
digital buses. An optional microcontroller with firmware can be incorporated
to improve sensor accuracy and temperature stability and can incorporate
auto-calibration, functional test, signal processing and digital bus
interfaces. Core competencies include:
- Piezoelectric accelerometers
- Capacitive accelerometers
- Strain gage load / force sensing
|
- Strain gage torque sensing
- Angular rate
- Magnetic field

Signal Conditioning and Amplifier Products
Signal conditioners are a vital part
of any high reliability sensor measurement providing power isolation, signal
conditioning, multiple sensor data fusion, sensor processing and decision
making. Proven building block designs for operating accelerometers, load
cells, LVDTs, thermocouples, RTDs, tachometers, phase measurement, RMS-to-DC
conversion and frequency-to-voltage are used as cores for your custom
application. Signal conditioners commonly have EMI filters, isolated power
supplies (AC or DC), surge protection, integral amplifiers, filters and
temperature compensation. Output signals can be analog voltages, current
loops or digital buses. An optional microcontroller with firmware can be
incorporated to improve accuracy and temperature stability and can
incorporate auto-calibration, functional test, processing and digital bus
interfaces. Core competencies include:
- Piezoelectric accelerometers
- Capacitive accelerometers
- Angular rate
- Magnetic field
- Strain gage based transducers
- LVDT / RVDT

- True RMS-to-DC
- Thermocouple
- RTD
- Frequency-to-Voltage
- Power amplifier
