The AN Series devices are suited for indoor use. These provides selectable input ranges and excitation voltages to accommodate cells of various types and sensitivities.

In some configurations (signal amplification, safety,...) it will be necessary to use the AN Series conditioner with a LMU Series - Load Monitoring Unit. If a remote or larger display is required a GAD Series - Digital Display (with heights ranging from 57 to 400 mm) can be used.

AN 1500 M: Load Monitor, Signal Conditioner & Display

As a Signal Conditioner, the AN 1500 M is designed to process and display signals coming from various types of transducers (weight, load, pressure, torque, etc.) that use standard strain-gauge bridges. As a Load Monitor the AN 1500 M can also receive any signal within the ± 150 mV DC range coming from a shunt, a converter or any type of transmitter. The Load Monitor provides selectable input ranges (±15 mV, ±30 mV, ±150 mV) and excitation voltages (5 V, 10 V) to accommodate cells of various types and sensitivities. Two programming methods allow scaling of the meter to operate in the desired engineering units. The basic instrument is a soldered assembly composed of a main board, a tri-color programmable display and a power circuit. Standard features include the reading of the input variable as well as remote (HOLD), the reading and memorization of minimum/maximum values (PEAK / VALLEY), TARE and RESET function, and a full complement of programmable logic functions.

AN 2000 C: Signal Conditioner & Display

The AN 2000 C Signal Conditioner & Display is designed to process and display signals coming from various types of transducers (weight, load, pressure, torque, etc.) that use standard strain-gauge bridges. It can also receive any signal within the range ± 300 mV DC coming from a shunt, a converter or any type of transmitter. The Conditioner provides selectable input ranges (max. ±300 mV) and excitation voltages (5 V, 10 V) to accommodate cells of various types and sensitivities. Two programming methods allow scaling of the meter to operate in the desired engineering units. The basic instrument consists of a PCB assembly including the main board, the display and the power supply filter, to which the A/D conversion circuit and the input option are added. The functions of the basic instrument include the display of the input variable as well as the remote freezing of the display (HOLD), the reading of the stored minimum and maximum values (PEAK & VALLEY) and the TARE function with reset to zero.

The force is introduced on one side through a central tapped hole, the other side of the force transducer has to be fixed to a sufficiently rigid plane surface by means of 8 high-strength hexagonal socket-head bolts to be tightened with a defined torque. A strain gauge bridge converts the elastic deformation of the sensing element into an electrical signal that can be evaluated. Compensation and adjustment elements are used to set the required technical data. As a standard, the transducers are equipped with a 3 m connection cable, which has free ends on the other side.

They are characterised by their small dimensions. Manufactured in stainless steel or high-resistance aluminum, these transducers can be used in a wide variety of applications. In particular, the stainless steel versions with a high degree of protection can be used everywhere without restriction, even in harsh environments. The sensor element consists of a diaphragm body equipped with metal foil strain gauges, which forms a hermetically sealed chamber filled with dry nitrogen. In standard mounting, the transducers are fixed with screws on a flat surface. The force is introduced vertically (without transverse force) via the universal ball joint, either directly or via a metal adapter interface. All Magtrol ZM Series transducers are supplied with a 1.5 m long connection cable with loose ends. Optionally, they can be supplied with a built-in amplifier (ZM‑E). Then, an Output Signals of 0 ... 10 V DC or 4 ... 20 mA can be selected.

Specifically developed for use with Magtrol load measuring pins and load-force weight sensors, the LMU Series provides excitation current and amplifies the output signal of full-bridge strain gauges. Load Monitoring Units are flexible and fully configurable due to DIP-switches and jumpers which allow the unit to be easily installed - no solder connections are required. The level detectors and the outputs can be dedicated either to the full-bridge input, to the voltage input, or to the sum of both. A built-in auto-diagnostic system detects any short circuits or signal line failures, thus allowing the system to be used in applications where safety is important. If a problem is detected, both relays are deactivated and the output voltage (respective current) changes to > 10 V DC and > 20 mA. The LMU is fully compatible with European Community (CE) standards. Its IP 65 aluminum housing allows the system to be used in harsh environments. Using SMD (surface mounted device) technology, the LMU allows the maximum performance/ price ratio for strain gauge transducer monitoring.
