±1000 mV Bridge Strain Gauge Data Logger
The Bridge101A is a compact, data logger that measures and records voltage, and is typically used in conjunction with strain gauges, load cells, and other low-level DC voltage sources. This device is designed to accurately calculate the output of the gauge to determine parameter levels such as stress, torque, strain, and pressure over a period of time.
Available in three different measurement ranges (±30 mV, ±160 mV, or ±1200mV), the Bridge101A offers a reading rate of up to 4 Hz with a memory capacity of 2,064,384 readings. The device can be configured to start at a specified date and time up to 24 months in advance or by using the push button start/stop feature.
The Bridge101A is compatible with the latest MadgeTech 4 Software making starting, stopping, and downloading simple and easy. Graphical, tabular, and summary data are provided for analysis and can be viewed as customizable engineering units.
Note: MadgeTech recommends using 350 or 1000 Ω strain gauges. 120 Ω strain gauges can be used with the Bridge101A but it is not recommended as it will reduce the battery life, potentially increase the noise level and limit the low-end temperature operation.
