Successful Measurement of Dynamic Force, Pressure and Acceleration

June 7-8 in Palmdale, CA

PCB Piezotronics is offering training in the Palmdale, CA area.  The short course, taught by Dr. Patrick Walter, will be held at Hilton Garden Inn Palmdale on June 7-8, 2018.

At this training, participants will learn to:
  • Understand the physics and operating characteristics of dynamic force, pressure (including acoustic), and acceleration transducers and constraints associated with their use
  • Interface transducers effectively with intended test environments
  • Condition transducer signals to maintain their fidelity through selection of appropriate cabling, amplifiers, analog filters, sampling rates, DAQs, etc.
  • Document extraneous measurands (e.g., strain, temperature, ionization products of a detonation, magnetic fields) that superpose as noise on the desired transducer response
  • Apply corrective action for elimination of these noise levels
  • Validate that final, recorded signals contain only the desired (force, pressure, or acceleration) data
  • Perform sensor and system calibration, data analysis and data utilization
  • Application issues associated with static load, torque, and pressure transducer applications can also be raised during the seminar.

The cost is $850 per person.  This fee covers training materials and meals.  Please remember to carry proof of citizenship with you to the training. 

Discounted rooms have been reserved for $125 per night for all attendees staying at Hilton Garden Inn Palmdale.  To book your hotel room, please contact the hotel at (661) 998-2000.  Mention you are attending PCB's Successful Measurement training to receive your discount.  Thank you for your interest.  We look forward to seeing you soon!
