MIL-DTL-27261 Test for Accelerometers in Aircraft

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of MIL-DTL-27261 testing. This standard defines integrated illuminated, 2-4/1-inch dial aircraft accelerometers with a range of -7 to +8g.

Accelerometers are devices used to measure acceleration and vibration in aircraft. There are various tests that can be done to ensure that the accelerometers on the aircraft are working properly and are measuring the required parameters accurately.

While there are several types of accelerometer tests in aircraft, the most well-known is the calibration test. This involves subjecting the accelerometer to known accelerations and comparing the readings to expected values. Testing is typically performed using a special calibration fixture that allows precise control of the accelerations applied to the accelerometer.

In addition to this test, accelerometers in aircraft may also be subjected to vibration testing, shock testing, temperature testing and electromagnetic interference testing, depending on specific applications and requirements.

It is important to regularly test and calibrate aircraft accelerometers to ensure they are measuring the required parameters correctly and working properly. This helps ensure the safety and reliability of the aircraft and its systems.
