Description

With its IP67 cast aluminum enclosure, the TRW analog load-cell transmitter has been specially designed to be used in harsh industrial environments. This model can power a single 120…350 Ω load cell with 10 V bridge excitation voltage. TRW accepts 1, 2, or 3 mV/V input signal and generates a standard linear output signal that can be safely sent over long distances to remote indicators, data loggers, or controllers. ZERO and SPAN adjustments can be performed by the means of built-in potentiometers. TRW is low-priced and can withstand considerable electromagnetic disturbances. It can be a preferable low-cost solution for general-purpose process weighting as well as tension measurement applications.
