Abstract
An accelerometer with internal electronics is mounted within a Faraday shield and encapsulated within a non-electrically conductive material applied by hot injection molding at a high pressure to form a hermetically sealed case with integral strain-relief, cable bend protection, ground loop isolation and protection against EMI/RFI interference through both conduction and radiation. The accelerometer is shaped as a torus with the center hole providing center hole bolt mounting.
