The hole in the PCB is designed to fasten the device directly onto the heater block with the nozzle “hard mounting”, which eliminates the need for additional hardware and reduces installation complexity. The device can be easily installed and removed from the heater block with the nozzle without the need for additional tools. When it comes to mounting an accelerometer, hard mounting is generally considered to be a better option compared to using plastic mounting.
Here are some reasons why: Better accuracy: Hard mounting an accelerometer directly onto the surface of the test object provides a more accurate measurement of the vibration. This is because the accelerometer is in direct contact with the object, and there is no potential for the accelerometer to shift or move during testing, which could introduce errors in the measurement. In contrast, plastic mounting can introduce some flexibility or movement between the accelerometer and the test object, which can lead to inaccuracies in the measurement.
Increased sensitivity: Hard mounting an accelerometer can increase its sensitivity to low-level vibrations. By mounting the accelerometer directly onto the surface of the test object, it can pick up even subtle vibrations that might not be detected using a plastic mounting. This can be particularly important for applications where precise measurement of low-level vibrations is critical.
