New WSG Series Transmitters Use Unrestricted 2.4 GHz Technology
Press Release Summary:
The WSG Series Transmitters from Sensor Technology are offered in WSG-STD and WSG-STM models that are DIN rail mounted and bench or wall mountable respectively. The WSG-STD unit is operated with a supply power of 11-32 V whereas the WSG-STM features an internal rechargeable battery or powered from 11-32 V external supply. The transmitters allow manufacturer’s strain gauge to send readings to displays and readouts that are located at a distance from the gauge.
Original Press Release:
Transmitter Makes Any Strain Gauge Wireless
Banbury-based Sensor Technology Ltd has a new range of transmitters that can add wireless capabilities to any make of strain gauge. The WSG series transmitters allow any manufacturer’s strain gauge to send readings to Sensor Technology’s wide range of displays and readouts, which can be located at a distance from the gauge itself.
Alternatively, they can be used with Sensor Technology’s PC-based software so that, as well as direct read out, analysis and interpretation can be completed instantly.
The transmitters are for use with 350 ohm strain gauges and above. Calibration data is set using simple interface software. The wireless signal transmission is based on the unrestricted 2.4GHz technology, so does not need an operating licence.
In use because there is no need to install and protect long cable runs from the gauge to the readout, the WSG units create a versatile and easy to install system. This also makes it simple to move the equipment between installations if required.
There are various models available within the range. The WSG-STD unit is DIN rail mountable and powered by a standard 11-32V DIN rail supply. The WSG-STM variant is designed for bench or wall mounting and has an internal rechargeable battery; it also has a socket so that it can also be powered from an external 11-32V supply.
Both versions have a USB port for connection for a PC.
