complete equipment for application of strain gauges with wiring and connecting of strain gauges
Code | FL101 |
Description:
- Measurement using strain gauges is the most important method of measuring mechanical strain.
- In this measuring method mechanical quantities are measured electrically.
- Strain gauge measurement is a relatively simple technique in practice, as it offers a high resolution and can be employed directly at the point of interest.
- A strain gauge is not a complete measuring instrument however.
- It is only rendered usable by the user, after being installed.
- The quality of measurement depends not only on the strain gauge itself, but also essentially on the application method and how it is executed.
- Strain gauges are highly reliable provided users have the skills and theoretical knowledge enabling them to use such highly sensitive sensor elements correctly.
- The application set FL 101provides all the necessary tools and aids to learn the fundamentals of strain gauges installation.
- For the measurements to work without error, components are first subjected to thorough preparation before the strain gauges are attached.
- Special adhesives ensure total transfer of component deformations to the strain gauge.
- The strain gauge is also protected by suitable coverings against external influences, such as damp and mechanical damage, by suitable coverings.
- The supplied package includes wiring to connect the strain gauges in bridge configurations.
- The wires are attached to the strain gauges using a supplied soldering bit and soldering terminals.
- The instructional material (text book, exercise script and video) provides a multimedia introduction to the installation and configuration of strain gauges and on interpretation of measured values.
