Description
The
strain gauge meter is a rugged direct reading instrument capable of
measuring up to 20,000 micro strain with a resolution of 1 digit. It has
two channels and can be used with any standard foil gauges in Half or
Full Bridge circuits and either 1, 2 or 4 active gauges including gauges
on force transducers. Each channel has a simple calibration and zeroing
(tare) system. Both channels have DC excitation for static work, while
one can alternatively provides an analogue output for dynamic work up to
at least 10 Hz. It comes complete with two Half Bridge connecting
cables.
The instrument is mains operated with a rechargeable
Ni-MH battery so it can be used for field work away from a power source.
Low power consumption allows at least 8 hours use.
By adding the
16 Channel Expansion Unit the meter becomes an 18 channel unit but
still with individual calibration and Tare on each channel automatically
called up when the channels are selected.
