This instrument has a specifi cation that makes it suitable for all common applications. The measurement voltages equal those given in the DIN test regulations (e.g. DIN 51953, DIN 53482, DIN 54345, DIN 57281 and DIN 57411) for measuring the electrical resistance value across fi lms, fl oor coverings, test equipment, cables, moldable materials, rubber, plastics, insulating oils and the like. Features: — Resistance range from 1 kΩ ... 100 TΩ — Current range from 0.1 pA ... 1 mA — Autorange — Test voltage selectable from 1 V ... 1000 V — Limit indicator — Measurement results storable on external USB flash drive — RS232 interface (USB and Ethernet optional)

The 9163 process value indicator covers a wide range of applications in which process values need to be measured, displayed, analyzed and transferred to higher-level control systems. Typical applications include measuring geometric values in production, for instance differential measurements, or testing material properties in the laboratory. The measured values can be transferred via PROFIBUS, RS232 interface or analog output. The multi-channel version can be used with up to four sensors. These sensors can be combined using mathematical functions, so that even complex measurement tasks can be performed with just the one instrument. Visual alarms on the display make it easier and more convenient to assess when values lie off-limits. Up to four configurable outputs are available as relay or logic outputs. The excellent measurement accuracy of 0.1% also makes this instrument suitable for high-precision applications.

Incremental rotation sensors are used wherever displacement, positions or speeds have to be measured accurately. They are therefore important interfaces between the mechanical and electronic parts of a machine. Mechanically robust, electrically reliable and resistant to extreme ambient conditions; these are the outstanding properties offered by this sensor. Typical applications include —Machine tools —Wood and plastic machining —Textile machines —Lifts —Door systems —Paper machines —Drive equipment —Assembly and handling equipment —Packaging machines —Scales —Test machines —Conveying equipment —Doors and gates Specific characteristics —Degree of protection IP65, all-around —Robust —High resistance to interference —Rotary speed sensor: 60 pulses/turn (standard) —Angular displacement sensor: up to 3600 pulses/turn —Detection of rotation direction (channels A and B) —Reference pulse (channel N) —Special versions on request

The range of functions has been limited deliberately to ensure operation is simple and self-explanatory. With its unique, large and clear digit height of 20 mm, the digital display can be installed easily in process control panels and control cabinets. Thanks to the large choice of measurement signals that can be indicated, the display is ideal for use in a huge range of industry-based applications. As a simple and compact digital display, it can also be used as a multi-channel solution in laboratory or test systems, where several different measurements may need to be taken and displayed simultaneously. Specific characteristics: — Less expensive digital display — For force, pressure or torque measurements using gauge sensors — Two limit alarms optionally available — Extremely easy-to-read display with 20 mm digit height — Display range -1999 to + 9999 — TARE function — Scaling possible using teach-in procedure or by entering sensor data directly

Situations often occur in practice in which it is necessary to place a measuring amplifier immediately in the neighborhood of the sensor in order to be able to access a standard signal there. In this way, long distances to the evaluating electronics can be covered. This task can ideally be performed by the 9236 in-line measuring amplifier. With its high degree of protection (IP67) its singlechannel version can be integrated into the application even in the tough environment outside the switch gear cabinet. — Automatic production machinery — Laboratory measurements — Integration into customer‘s circuit boards — Field measurements Features: — Operates with up to 4 measuring channels — Voltage output 0 to ± 5 V / 0 to ±10 V — Protected against reverse connection and short-circuit — Also available as circuit board without housing — Simple configuration using DIP switch — High degree of protection up to IP67

The amplifier module model 9243 is used wherever measurement signals from strain gauges, potentiometric sensors or DC/DC sensors have to be converted into standard signals. Simply by mounting on conventional DIN-mount rails, it is possible to position the amplifier module on location, in the proximity of the sensor. Especially for rough environments a IP65 version is available. The broad auxiliary power range and the choice between AC or DC permits operation on standard power supplies used in switch gear cabinets. A highly precise reference voltage source is built-in for calibration purposes. A calibrating shunt can also be connected via two separate terminals. This permits deliberate detuning of a strain gauge sensor for calibration or merely to check the measuring chain.

The new 9250/9251 amplifier generation unites all the features that make modern measurement data acquisition actually possible for the first time. Network-compatible, high-precision, user-friendly, smart and versatile: the combined system of amplifier module and bus controller can be integrated into any existing setup. The amplifier 9250 in conjuction with the fieldbus controller 9251 takes signals exactly to the point where they can be combined, monitored and linked efficiently to other data. The fieldbus interfaces give you flexibility, speed and perfect connections, and save you time, money and other resources when integrating your measurement setup with existing systems. Automatic sensor recognition due to burster TEDS lets you play absolutely safe, protecting you from setting incorrect parameters. The broad supply voltage range permits operation on standard power supplies used in switch gear cabinets.

In the field there is a frequent need to measure sensor readings rapidly and easily right at the sensor and to transfer them directly to a PC without additional amplifiers or converters. The 9206 USB sensor interface can satisfy this requirement admirably, thanks to its „plug & measure“ design. The USB connection means installation could not be simpler. Typical applications: —Mobile test measurements via laptop —Laboratory test set-ups —Instrumentation and control —Diagnostic measurements in the chemical industry —PC-based recording of expansion figures in bio engineering The USB sensor interface takes its supply from the connected PC via the USB port, and uses it to generate the power supply for the sensors. The initial settings and sensor settings are made by burster in-house and saved in the USB sensor interface. These can then be fine-tuned by the customer.

In practice the requirement often arises to convert the measurement signals of a sensor into a standard signal in the simplest possible manner in the immediate proximity of the sensor. This permits trouble-free, low-loss transmission of measured values over longer distances to an instrument board or plant controls. Ideally suited for this purpose is the in-line measuring amplifier, which is inserted in between in the connection cable by means of plug contacts. Owing to its compact, robust design and low weight, it finds use in almost any application. Even movable locations subject to forces of acceleration, for example manipulators, present no problems. It is intended mainly for use of control cabinets in just about any location and is matched to a specific sensor. The aluminium housing is extremely sturdy and affords the greatest possible protection even in harsh environments.

The newly developed sensor PROFIBUS module model 9221 is predestined for the integration of various analog sensor output signals into complex, net worked and peripheral automation structures. This module finds its fields of application in the industrial automation technology as well as the test rig technology based on its secure and reliable transfer mode, the fast transfer speed and its simple construction. The inputs (e.g. PLC signal gauge) and outputs in addition to the external control allow a zero compensation by trigger via proximity switch or fast alerting on passing of set point values. Industrial type connection and mounting techniques enable the user the adaption and integration in the existing mechanical and electrical environment. The excellent quality of measurement together with the high grade capture of mean values also enable the application in research and development. The use of standardized PROFIBUS protocols makes the connection an easy task for the programmer.
