SGS-350 Series – Strain Gauge Simulator

Product Description

The Magtrol SGS-350 is a strain gauge bridge simulator made entirely with passive components and an aluminum housing designed for use in extremely harsh environments.

The SGS-350 can be used in place of a strain gauge sensor with 0 … 2 mV/V sensitivity, in order to test or calibrate an LMU 210 Series Load Monitoring Unit (or other model), including threshold overload testing.

The SGS-350 can be supplied with 5 … 10 V DC power supply.

Features

  • Power Supply: 5 … 10 V DC
  • Sensitivity: 0 … 2 mV/V
  • Linearity: 0.5 %
  • Impedance: 350 Ohms
  • 10-turn Potentiometer (with counter)
  • Aluminum Housing
  • Single and dual channel versions available

Applications

Combined with an LMU 210 Series – Load Monitoring Unit, the strain gauge simulator allows operational tests and settings to be preformed prior to use on site.

Its aluminum housing provides the SGS-350 with reinforced protection and allows it to be used in particularly harsh environments.

The dual-channel version simulates sensor settings with redundant strain gauge bridges.

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.

Idealy for use on Safety Applications according to ECE-R10, ISO 13849-1 : CAT4 & PLe (LE 600 Series); ISO 13849-1 : CAT2 & PLd (LE 400 Series). Magtrol Load Measuring Pins are used to measure load and force, and provide overload protection. The pins are mounted into machines in place of normal shafts and fitted with strain gauges, allowing them to produce a signal proportional to the measured load. Manufactured in Switzerland, Magtrol’s LE Series Load Measuring Pins are rugged with high resistance stainless steel and tight construction. Available in several standard ranges from 2.5 kN to 1 250 kN, their operation remains trouble-free and reliable even in electromagnetically difficult environmental conditions.

Design

Magtrol's Load Measuring Pins have two circular grooves and an axial bore. Inside the central bore, adjacent to the external grooves, the strain gauges are mounted in a full-bridge configuration. The positioning and orientation of the strain gauges have been optimized by means of the finite element method (FEM).
