The SGA strain gauge amplifier is a very versatile, low noise analogue device, available in mains- or DC-powered variants, which provides conditioning for a wide range of full- and half-bridge strain gauges, and produces twin analogue output signals, 0-10V DC and 4-20mA.
The D-Cell and DSC digital strain card are two highly accurate digital devices which convert a strain gauge transducer into a digital strain transducer.
Just connect the strain gauge, add a power supply, and connect to a computer or PLC system.
The system is fully programmable and with resolution selectable up to 19bit.
The ADP15 and ADW15 are panel-mounting or DIN-rail mounting process monitoring and control instruments which will accept a wide range of inputs (including strain gauges), have many communication, alarm functions, communications options etc - indeed, there are over 250,000 different combinations of this instrument available.
The ADW range is especially adapted for weighing applications, with models available for functions such as fast-fill-by-weight, batch weighing, loss-in-weight etc.
