Stork STRAIN Universal Strain Gauge Transmitter
The Stork STRAIN is a DIN rail mounted universal strain gauge transmitter designed to convert standard 4-wire bridge strain gauge signals into an isolated 4–20 mA or voltage output. With 1500 V 3-port isolation, isolated bridge excitation, and flexible AC or DC supply options, it is a robust choice for load, force, weight, and strain measurement interfacing.
Key benefits
- Converts standard 4-wire bridge signals to process outputs for reliable integration into control systems.
- User configurable output selectable as 4–20 mA or voltage.
- Isolated bridge excitation voltage for stable sensor operation.
- 1500 V 3-port isolation for enhanced electrical protection.
- DC or AC supply options available to suit installation requirements.
- Remote calibration feature for bridges with a calibration resistor.
- Front panel zero and span adjustment for in-field trimming.
- Output monitoring pins allow measurement without breaking the current loop.
Product overview
The STRAIN universal strain gauge transmitter is designed to interface strain gauge bridge signals with control systems requiring standard analogue outputs. It converts any standard 4-wire bridge input into an isolated 4–20 mA or voltage output and provides an isolated bridge excitation voltage to support stable measurement.
Housed in a DIN rail mounted enclosure, the unit includes a remote calibration feature that can be used with any bridge fitted with a calibration resistor. For commissioning and maintenance, front panel mounted zero and span potentiometers enable quick in-field adjustment. Output monitoring pins are provided so the output can be measured without breaking the current loop, helping reduce downtime during checks and calibration.
Power supply options include 12–36 Vdc or 90–262 Vac, allowing it to fit a wide range of panel power standards.
