Multimeters operate differently than our sensors. Multimeters are designed to average the data and update their display only once a second or so. Our sensors, on the other hand, sample data much faster, updating several times a second. Because some p...

It will depend on several things. The easiest way to ensure no interference is to use our Go Direct water quality sensors via Bluetooth. If you are using LabQuest sensors or Go Direct sensors via USB, please see the attached documents for specific in...
Yes, we carry a high and low standard for each of our ISEs. These are used to calibrate the sensors. They come in 500 mL bottles.

If you want to build your own sensors, connect Vernier sensors to your own interface or build your own cables, extensions, interfaces, or adapters. Here is how to get all the connectors and sockets we use.
We chose these connectors because they c...
There are two sets of mounting holes on the Vernier wired (BTA) accelerometers for attaching the accelerometer firmly to an experiment setup, when necessary. Each pair of mounting holes is 30 mm apart (measured center-to-center). Each mounting hole ...
For currents greater than 0.6 A, we recommend our High Current Sensor (HCS-BTA), which has a range of +/- 10 A, our Vernier Energy Sensor (VES-BTA) which has a built-in current probe with a range of +/- 1 A, or our Go Direct® Current Probe (GDX-C...
Go Direct Acceleration
Go Direct® Acceleration Sensor (GDX-ACC)
This is our most versatile accelerometer. It has two ranges (±16 g and ±200 g), measures three axes of acceleration, and has a built in three-axis gyroscope and an altim...
Vernier accelerometers measure acceleration along the line marked by the arrow on the label. Accelerations are normally measured in either meters per second per second (m/s2) or g's. One g is the acceleration due to gravity at the Earth's surface, or...
Q: What does an accelerometer actually measure?
A: Normal force per unit mass.
Note that it's not the net force per unit mass (which would be acceleration), but it is the normal force per unit mass. This unusual quantity corresponds with what a rid...
