SomatXR MX1615B-R amplifier: For experimental stress analysis

Overview
Downloads

The MX1615B-R is ideal for measurement of strain gauges, but it also offers the ability to measure voltages, and more. Input types include:

  • ¼, ½, and full bridge strain gauges of 120 or 350 ohm
  • Voltage signals (± 60 V)
  • Potentiometric transducers
  • and PT100 temperature sensor connections

The MX1615B-R further distinguishes itself with its 4-, 5-, and 6-wire circuit-based patented technology, employing carrier frequency methods and cyclical auto-adjustment on all channels. All these features make the amplifier particularly rugged and insensitive to electromagnetic and thermal interference from converters, high currents, electric motors, or temperature effects.

Typical fields of application

  • Mobile measurements and tests with off-highway vehicles (construction, agriculture and forestry)
  • Stationary measurements and tests on infrastructures, e.g. buildings
  • Field tests in harsh environments

Your benefits

  • Reliable measurement results even in harsh environments
  • Reduced wiring effort due to use of distributed modules
  • Digitization close to the sensor results in higher measurement quality

Flexible, modular and expandable

SomatXR modules can also be used in combination with other data acquisition systems (e.g. QuantumX). In just a few simple steps you can put together a highly individualized data acquisition system scaled to your specific needs. The modules communicate via Ethernet TCP/IP and are synchronized using IEEE 1588 (PTPv2).

Professional software support

SomatXR users benefit from a powerful software package. Every measurement module can be connected to the PC and  catman measurement software via Ethernet. The ultra rugged CX22B-R data recorder allows stand-alone use in the field without a PC. This ensures that the data is easy to acquire, clearly visualized and smartly analyzed.

Highly precise and reliable

Reliable and dependable measurement results require the calibration of transducers, amplifiers, or complete measurement chains.

  • Working standard calibration certificate according to ISO 10012 stored in the SomatXR module
  • DAkkS certificate (ISO 17025) from HBM on request
