Interface Module links strain gauges, load cells to Orbit 3.
2015-03-26 13:31:07| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
Strain Gauge Interface Module (SGIM) allows strain gauges and load cells to interface with Solartron Orbit® 3 digital measurement system. Four- and six-wire, full-bridge strain transducers can share Orbit® sensor network with Solartron digital displacement and dimensional measurement transducers, and sensor readings can be taken directly into PC, PLC, or Solartron Digital Readout. Capable of acquisition rates up to 3,906 readings/sec, digitizing circuit provides >0.02% FSO linearity.

Modbus Interface Module offers PLC interface for ORBIT 3 network.
2015-03-11 13:31:08| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
MODBUS Interface Module (MODIM) provides gateway between MODBUS PLCs and Orbit®3 Digital Measurement System. Latter can then provide all process variables — temperature, pressure, force, rotary measurement and linear displacement — to PLC via one MODBUS interface. Access to complex sensor networks with varying interfaces via MODBUS parameters is thus enabled through one device. End-users can connect to Solartron gauging, displacement, and non-contact sensors as well as third-party sensors.
