VY full bridge strain gauges (SGs) have 4 measuring grids, which are arranged so that each is offset to the next at an angle of 90°. Typical applications for full bridge SGs include measurements on tension/compression bars and torsion bars and determining shear stresses as they occur in shear beams.

With types VY1 (0°/90° T full bridge) and VY4 (shear/torsion full bridge) we offer you strain gauges (SG) in various geometries and sizes, each available with temperature responses adapted to the following materials:

  • Ferritic steel (10.8 ppm/K; 6.0 ppm/°F); temperature matching code: 1
  • Aluminum (23 ppm/K; 12.8 ppm/°F); temperature matching code: 3
  • Austenitic steel (16 ppm/K, 8.9 ppm/°F); temperature matching code: 5
  • Silica/composite (0,5 ppm/K; 0.3 ppm/°F); temperature matching code: 6
  • Titanium and gray cast iron (9 ppm/K; 5.0 ppm/°F); temperature matching code: 7
  • Plastic (65 ppm/K; 36.1 ppm/°F); temperature matching code: 8

Insert the temperature matching code in place of the placeholder “x” to get the ordering number of the strain gauge you need. Strain gauges marked with a # symbol are only available matched to aluminum, ferritic and austenitic steel

  • Strain gauges available in 120 and 350 Ohms
  • Measuring grid consists of constantan, measuring grid carrier is polymide
  • Fast delivery for preferred strain gauge types -  available from stock!

Simplified Documentation and Parameterization

To optimize the measuring point documentation each strain gauge includes two stickers which can be placed next to the measuring point and near the measuring amplifier. Benefit from the parameter information directly in the measurement setup:

  • QR code that directly links to the data sheet of the respective strain gauge
  • The product and production batch numbers
  • The k-factor and a additional space for your notes
  • QR code containing the values of the individual strain gauge to simplify computer-aided parameterization or documentation with a scanner

간소화된 문서화 및 파라미터화

측정 지점 문서화를 최적화하기 위해 각 스트레인 게이지에는 측정 지점 옆과 측정 증폭기 근처에 붙일 수 있는 두 개의 스티커가 포함되어 있습니다. 측정 설정에서 직접 매개 변수 정보를 활용할 수 있습니다.

  • 각 스트레인 게이지의 데이터 시트 에 직접 연결되는 QR 코드
  • The 제품 및 생산 배치 번호
  • The k-factor 그리고 추가적인 메모 공간
  • QR 코드가 포함된  개별 스트레인 게이지의 값 스캐너를 사용하여 컴퓨터 지원 파라미터화 또는 문서화를 단순화하려면

참고: 새로 생산된 스트레인 게이지는 모두 스티커와 함께 제공되며, 기존 재고 스트레인 게이지에는 이 기능이 포함되지 않습니다.
