Cable Length
Two Minute Tips
Accelerometer Maximum Cable Length Calculator
When cables between the power supply and the accelerometer are short, less than 100 feet or 30 meters, circuit capacitance usually has no significant effect on the vibration data signals. Long cables may introduce sufficient capacitance into the sensor circuit to allow vibration signal distortion and produce spurious signals.

Two Minute Tips
Maximum Cable Length for Vibration Sensors
A vibration sensor produces an AC voltage dependent on the vibration signal being measured. As such, it’s subject to all the limits of AC signals. Long cable runs are likely to introduce enough capacitance into the sensor circuit to cause distortion, which makes being able to calculate cable length limits very important..
