Piezoelectric Vibration Pickup: Accurate Vibration Monitoring
Vibration monitoring is a fundamental part of engineering safety assessments. Whether it's blast vibrations during tunneling or structural responses from heavy machinery, capturing these dynamic signals demands reliable sensors. Piezoelectric vibration pickups convert mechanical vibrations directly into electrical signals using the piezoelectric effect, requiring no external power and responding sharply to high-frequency transients. Kingmach offers a range of piezoelectric vibration pickups suited for demanding conditions in geotechnical and structural monitoring. Our mid-range products balance performance and cost, providing stable data acquisition for long-term monitoring projects.
Technical Detail
Kingmach piezoelectric vibration pickups are designed for diverse field monitoring scenarios. The sensors use compression or shear mode constructions, with optimized coupling of the sensitive element to cover a wide frequency range and deliver strong signal output. Standard product lines include multiple sensitivity options to match different data acquisition systems. In typical geohazard monitoring, the pickups can be embedded in slopes to capture micro-seismic events, providing early signs for landslide warnings. In structural health monitoring, they are installed at critical nodes of bridges or high-rise buildings to record dynamic displacements from wind or traffic loads. As a professional manufacturer of geotechnical instruments, Kingmach customizes housing materials, cable lengths, and connector types to project requirements. We offer global technical support and after-sales calibration services to ensure long-term sensor stability. With a focus on measurement and monitoring technology, our mid-range piezoelectric vibration pickups deliver professional-grade performance at a reasonable cost.

FAQ
Sensitivity depends on the internal piezoelectric material and mechanical design. We provide versions with different sensitivities, commonly from 10 mV/g to 100 mV/g, selected to match the impedance of your data acquisition system.
Standard piezoelectric sensors are charge-output types, requiring an external charge amplifier. IEPE sensors have built-in electronics that convert the high-impedance charge signal to a low-impedance voltage output, making them suitable for long cable runs.
Waterproof packaging options are available. Housings can be stainless steel or alloy, with internal sealing up to IP68, suitable for wet conditions or direct burial.
Yes, we provide factory calibration and periodic recalibration services. Our global distribution network offers technical support and after-sales service to ensure data traceability.
