The P-3500 Strain Indicator is a portable, battery-powered instrument with unique features for use in stress analysis testing, and for use with strain gauge based transducers. The P-3500 also incorporates a highly stable DC amplifier, precisely regulated bridge excitation supply, and precisely settable gauge factor controls. An optional transducer input connector facilitates connection of four- or six-wire strain gauge based transducers.
Applications:
Used for stress analysis testing of components in all engineering industries. The combination with an SB-10 Switch and Balance unit which allows the operator to intermix, in a single 10-channel system, quarter-, half-, and full-bridge circuits.
Technical Specification:
Balance Range - + 19 999 microstrain at Gage Factor <6.000.
+ (6.000/GF) X 19 999 microstrain at Gage Factor >6.000
Accuracy - ±0.05% of reading ±3 microstrain for Gage Factor settings of 1.000 to 9.900.
±0.05% of reading ±20 microstrain for Gage Factor settings of 1.000 to 9.900
