Technical Features
- The digital ALMEMO® D7 measuring connector uses its own integrated A/D converter. The overall accuracy of the measuring operation is unaffected by the presence of an ALMEMO® V7 display device / data logger. The whole measuring chain, comprising e.g. a force transducer and the connected ALMEMO® D7 measuring connector, can be calibrated end-to-end.
- The measuring rate is determined entirely and exclusively by the integrated A/D converter. On the ALMEMO® V7 measuring instrument all D7 measuring connectors operate in parallel at their own measuring rate. The measuring instrument‘s very short scan cycle is determined by the measuring rates of the D7 measuring connectors – irrespective of their number.
- For measuring dynamic processes the ALMEMO® D7 measuring connector operates in the high-speed range at a fast conversion rate. The ALMEMO® V7 measuring instrument saves the measured values; the measuring software WinControl displays them in graphical form. If high-level resolution and stable values are required, e.g. precision transducers for force, the ALMEMO® D7 measuring connector operates in the „High-level resolution“ range but at a reduced conversion rate.
- Measurements are taken using a full bridge with a 4-conductor circuit. The bridge is powered from the ALMEMO® D7 plug.
- The sensor is scaled to its actual physical quantity (e.g. end value 1 kN with characteristic 2 mV / V); this is performed via the ALMEMO® V7 device (device itself or ALMEMO® Control software). – zero-point adjustment, – scaling of end value by entering characteristic mV / V or adjustment by loading the bridge with end value The assigned units can be up to 6 characters in length. Sensor identification can be programmed with designations up to 20 characters in length.
