ZSG Strain Gauge Amplifier or Converter for Load Cells from Ucontrol Australia

Ucontrol Pty in Australia has taken the world by storm with the introduction of highly flexible and easy to use ZSG Strain Gauge Amplifier or Converter. The ZSG strain gauge amplifier is a compact 17,5 x 100 x 112 mm device that has a terminal housing with standard 35 mm DIN 46277 mounting. The device has an input of 4 or 6-wire bridge connections with the lowest value 87 suitable for 1..4 loadcells (350) or maximum 1..8 loadcells (1000). The converter also has an output signal of N.1 channel current 0..20, 4..20 mA or voltage 0..10, 0..5 Vdc. T is also possible to select a single digital input/output for tare calibration or threshold weight. ZSG Strain Gauge Amplifier or Converter comes with sensitivity ranging from 1 to 64 mV/V.

Talking about the interface, this amplifier has RS485 serial communication with Modbus?RTU protocol. DIP-switch or software programmable functions includes full scale, exceed threshold and stable weight while galvanic isolation is @ 1,5 KV. For easy mounting, the screw-fit terminals can be removed as needed.

The power supply is a wide ranging 10-40 VDC or 19 - 28 VAC. There is also 2 RS485 interface available one with 2 wires and baud rate at 1.200..115k and the other with a stereo jack, 2.400 baud and 8 data bit with no parity and a single bit stop. If there is malfunctioning at any time, the user will instantly come to know it through status indicators showing either power supply fault, or data sending and/or receiving errors.

ZSG strain gauge amplifier or converter has a galvanic isolation of 1.500 VAC and data memory with EEPROM for all configuration data. The data memory also offers a storage time of up to 10 years. This cost-effective device can consume up to 2,0 W of power and has humidity ranging from 30 to 90% at +40°Humidity C (non-condensing).

To ensure maximum safety during use, the ZSG strain gauge converter has a self-extinguishing glass filled nylon case.  The operating temperature ranges from -10 to +65 degrees C while the rate of accuracy is 0,01% calibration, 0,01% linearity and 0,0025% /°C Thermal coefficient. One of the best things about this converter is flexibility of connection. The user can easily connect the device with the help of plug-in screw clamp terminal blocks and wires measuring up to 2.5 square mm. The device has a sampling frequency from 12,53 to 151,71 Hz and ADC of 24 bit. This ZSG strain gauge amplifier or converter has IP 20 protection and is also CE approved for use in any industrial setting.
