Post-yield Strain Gauge YEF series

YEF series Post-yield strain gauge

These gauges are applicable to the measurement of large strain up to 10 to 15%. Also these withstand the repeated strain in elastic range (at strain level ±1500 × 10-6 strain) like ordinary strain gauges. However, these are not applicable to the measurement of repeated strain in a large range.

* Suitable when a large strain measurement is made after a few days or more of bonding the strain gauge.

Arrester Thunder proof for TML-NET NNZ-2A

Thunder proof for TML-NET NNZ-2A

Protects network measuring system TML-NET from induced lighting. In lighting-prone areas, the induced voltage of lighting traveling through the cables of measuring instruments or network modules can damage network drivers and network modules on the network. When this unit is connected at both ends of the extended network line, it automatically separates the network line when instruments enter standby, to block induced current on the line from lighting and protect networked drivers and modules.

Thunder proof for TML-NET NNZ-2A
Features
  • Shuts off network line automatically during measurement standby status to avoid induced current
  • Power is supplied from network line
  • Monitors voltage of network line and current of network modules, and shuts off immediately if abnormal condition occurs

  • Specifications
    Type NNZ-2A
    Surge tolerance 100A (8/20µs impulse)
    Available number for one system NNZ-2A: up to 10
    Low-comsumption network module: up to 100
    Rated power supply voltage DC18 to 24V
    Display function Drop of voltage in the network line
    Over current of network module (Shuts off the network modules at over current)
    Environment −20 to +60℃ 85%RH or less (no condensation)

Data Logger use static measurement software TDS-7130v2

The TDS-7130v2 runs on a MS Windows PC to perform static measurement using TML data loggers. In addition to visual representation with multiple graphs, this software is a powerful tool for creating a report with data and graphs because it is capable of pasting multiple graphs, value monitors, labels and images on one graph sheet. It can take the most advantage of the data logger function of automatic multi-channel measurement. The TDS-7130v2-A, applicable to long-term measurement and alarm contact, is optionally available. It has additional functions including automatic start of measurement, alarm output using contact unit, and automatic scroll of progress monitor. With these functions, the software is suitable for observation during and after construction, and construction management.
Supported: our data loggers, TS-963, TS-960, TS-560, TS-360, TDS-540, TDS-630 (Ver.1.1C or later), TDS-530 (Ver.1.0D or later), TDS-300, TDS-302 (Ver.1.2A or later), TDS-303 (Ver.1.0E or later), TDS-601 (Ver.1.4A or later), TDS-602 (Ver.1.0G or later), THS-1000, THS-1100 (Ver.1.1A or later)

Arrester NZ-6B

Arrester NZ-6B

An arrester protects measuring instruments and transducers from induced lighting. In lighting-prone areas, the induced voltage of lighting traveling through the cables of measuring instruments or switch boxes can damage instruments and transducers. When placing measuring instruments and transducers, connection of NZR-7B／NZ-7C on cabling between an instrument and a switch box or NZ-6B on cabling between a transducer and switch box will protect the instrument and transducer by allowing induced current to pass to the ground.
