Handheld Dynamic Strainmeter DH-14A

Handheld Dynamic Strainmeter DH-14A

The DH-14A is a handheld and battery-operated dynamic strainmeter having 4 measurement channels. Dynamic strain is easily measured while monitoring numerical values and wave forms. Trigger measurement mode and free-run measurement mode are available. The DH-14A is well suited not only for measurement in fieldwork or on moving object, but also for checking sensors and input noise as a checker. Using 4 AA alkaline batteries commercially available, the meter allows measurement for 4 consecutive hours (or for 6 hours in power saving mode).

  • Added Tie Bar Measurement Function

    A Tie Bar Measurement function has been added to the monitor display features. Unlike the other measurement functions, this feature is specifically designed for measuring tie bar loads.

    Tie Bar Load Measurement

    The Tie Bar Load Measurement function measures the loads applied to the four tie bars of an injection molding machine or similar equipment during operation.

    ・
     

    		 Two Stress Auditors are installed diagonally on each tie bar, and the average of the two measurement values is used.

    ・
     

    		 Two tie bars are measured simultaneously using four channels (four Stress Auditors). By repeating this procedure twice, all four tie bars can be measured.

    ・

     

    		 Based on the measured values of the four tie bars, the software calculates and displays the measurement results, including the load for each tie bar, the average value, the total value, and the balance (%). Display units are selectable from με, kN, and tf.

  • Added X-Y Graph Display Function

    An X-Y Graph Display function has been added to the monitor display features.

    X-Y Graph Display
    The X-Y Graph displays the relationship and magnitude of measurement values from two channels as a two-dimensional plot.

    ・ Up to three X-Y graph pairs can be displayed simultaneously.
    ・
         		 Measurement channels and X-/Y-axis assignments can be configured independently for each graph.
    ・ Display scales can be configured individually for each graph and each axis.
    ・ Numeric values can also be displayed.
    ・ Plotted data can be cleared at any time.

AWHU-5/AWHU-8CE_logo

These gauges can be used in temperature up to 800°C for both static and dynamic measurement. However, owing to the construction of the sensing element, measurement is recommended in temperature at 600°C or above. The sensing part has half bridge configuration with active element and dummy element, and it is measured in full bridge method using the attached temperature compensation circuit board. Since these gauges have small backings and thin sleeves and cables as standard specifications, they are applicable to narrow and/or curved areas.
