Analog Signal Conditioners – Model SGA

The SGA series signal conditioners are ideal for cyclic and high speed testing where no display is needed. Available in single and dual channel versions, they provide the signal conditioning electronics needed for a strain gage based extensometer.

38 EXTENSOMETER MODELS are available in many thousands of variations. Our focus on helping customers has led to the development of models to cover nearly any test method.

Operation of these, and all of Epsilon’s extensometers, are

VERIFIED TO APPLICABLE STANDARDS SUCH AS ASTM E83 OR ISO 9513

using in-house calibration systems that are calibrated with Epsilon’s laser interferometer system.

WITH EPSILON’S 20+ YEAR HISTORY OF SERVICE

to the materials testing community, you know we will be there to stand behind our products when your critical application requires it.

The SGA has adjustable excitation voltage and a high accuracy amplifier to provide a high level DC voltage output. An offset adjustment potentiometer is easily accessible on the front panel.

The output is ideal for direct connection to data acquisition boards or test controllers which require high level voltage or current inputs.

All models are supplied with a universal power supply and adapters for your country: specify regional adapters when ordering. A 2.5 m (8 ft) output cable is included to connect to external systems. Calibration with an extensometer (for each channel) is included.
