Universal Amplifier Supports 15 Transducer Types
HBM 's MX440A is a four-channel universal amplifier that supports up to 15 different transducer types per channel. All four channels can all be individually configured and can be used for measuring a wide range of mechanical, thermal or electrical quantities such as force, displacement, torque, temperature, pressure, rotational speed, position, speed, acceleration, voltage or current. The amplifier supports, for example, half- and full-bridge circuits (strain-gage and inductive transducers), resistors, piezo-resistive transducers, potentiometers, voltage, current, thermocouples, LVDT, pulse counters and rotary encoders. The input channels are electrically isolated and each provides one 24-bit analogue-to-digital converter. Ethernet TCP/IP and automatic configuration allow for easy and fast connection to the PC. The MX440A is suitable for a wide range of applications including automated testing of system components and the testing or long-term monitoring of tunnels. The amplifier is...
