3.4 Angular Velocity Sensor Mounting

The application of angular velocity sensors is possible in the head. There are two
options:

1.

ATA ARS-01 or ARS-06 (flanged version) (see Figure 6) with special mount block
020-1014. The mount block 020-1014 consists of a base and three ATA ARS
sensor blanks of similar weight and size. Any of these ARS sensor blanks can be
replaced with an ATA ARS-01 or ARS-06 (flanged version) sensor. The 020-2014
mounting block will accept the same mount block as the standard accelerometer
mounting for the head (I.AD or I.AM, see Figure 2). The ATA ARS sensor blanks
should not be removed if there are no sensors to replace them.

Figure 6.

2.

DTS ARS-12K with special combine accelerometer/ARS mount (Humanetics part #
IT-900) on the standard bracket 020-1013A. The sensor and the mount are
shown in Figure 7.
