SE-20
Innovative spring-guided vibration exciter with leading technology as part of the SE-2X exciter series.
The SE-20 offers a very wide frequency range, low transverse motion, a wide temperature range and high payload (e.g. for geophones). In addition to high quality components, the focus is on a broad range of applications and easy implementation in existing test environments. The shaker can be operated vertically and horizontally and requires no compressed air supply or zero-position control.

Performance
The diagrams below show the performance of the SE-20 and SE-20T for operation alternating between 10 minutes at full load and 10 minute breaks (blue graph). Performance may vary for different cycles. The yellow graph shows acceleration values that can be safely used during continuous operation.

CS Q-LEAP™ SINE with SE-20
The CS Q-LEAP™ system is used for vibration calibration (3 Hz…10 kHz) of a wide range of sensors. It consists of the HERO™ vibration controller and the SE-20 high-frequency vibration exciter.
