MARIETTA, GA – 06/2010
- This universal laboratory charge amplifier can be used for force and torque
measurements with piezoelectric dynamometers or force plates. Piezoelectric sensors produce an electric
charge which varies in direct proportion with the load acting on a sensor. The amplifier converts this charge
signal into a proportional output voltage.
-
Multichannel charge amplifier
-
Piezotron® (IEPE) input - optional
-
Setup of instrument is modular
-
1 … 8 modules can be inserted
-
6-component analog summing calculation
-
Wide measuring range
-
USB and RS-232C interface for remote control
-
Suitable for data acquisition software DynoWare Type 2825A
Description
Charge Amplifier Type 5080A… is the successor to charge amplifier Types 5017B… and Types 5019B… .
Thanks to the modular design up to eight amplifier modules can be inserted. Charge modules Type 5067A0
with BNC connector are standard, as an option it is as also possible to integrate Piezotron® modules Type
5067A2. A 6-component analog summing calculator Type 5245 is provided by default. This feature calculates
the resulting force as well as the three components of the resulting torque real time. Dynamometer-specific
values required for torque calculation can be set directly on the instrument.
The liquid crystal display shows all channel settings. Various channels can be switched onto the display as
required. The instrument is set up by means of different menus with the universal press-and-turn knob. All
functions can, however, also be controlled externally via RS-232C or USB 2.0.
Application
This instrument is particularly suitable for general force measurements, cutting force measurements with Kistler dynamometers and wheel force measurements on tire test stands when a wide measuring range or
high quality of signals is needed. Charge amplifier Type 5080A… finds its application in research and
development.
