Description

The TR150 Portable Strain Display Load Cell/Force transducer readout is a microprocessor based portable instrument designed to interface with any full bridge sensor with an output sensitivity of up to 50mV/V. Bridge resistances from  85Ω upwards can be used with the TR150.

Configuration and calibration of the TR150 is achieved using the front panel push buttons to navigate through a very simple menu structure.

Features

  • Powered by 2x AA internal batteries
  • 7½ Digit Display with battery low, peak, trough, net & shunt calibration indication
  • Compatible with most Strain Gauge Based Sensors
  • Dual Range Facility
  • Optional RS232 Communications
  • Battery life of 5000 hours in low power mode with 350 ohm bridge connected
  • Auto sleep facility
  • Robust Construction – Sealed to IP65

 

User functions available on the TR150 include:-

 

  • Range Selection
  • Display Hold/Freeze
  • Gross/Net indication selection
  • Peak Hold selection
  • Trough Hold selection
  • Shunt Cal check

 

The TR150 is powered by two internal non-rechargeable AA alkaline batteries. The display provides the excitation voltage for the load cell, or strain gauge, and provides a programmable reading from the returned mV/V output.

 

Sensor Connections

The standard sensor connection is a 5 pin 723 series Binder connector. The sensor connector is also used as a charging socket, when the re-chargeable alkaline battery option has been ordered, the wiring for this is detailed below:-

PIN 1 +ve Excitation
PIN 2 -ve Excitation, -ve Charge Input
PIN 3 +ve Signal
PIN 4 -ve Signal
PIN 5 +ve Charge Input
