DC-POWERED
4 1/2 DIGIT STRAIN / MICROVOLT METER
Low cost, small size, low power consumption at 5 Vdc and exceptional power-supply noise rejection make the 2520-PA ideal for demanding OEM and portable-instrument applications.
MICROVOLT PREAMPLIFIER
The 2520-PA incorporates a preamplifier, which can be programmed for resolution from 1 to 25 µV/count and for zero offset up to ±0.6 mV (RTI) ±21% of full-scale readout (RTO). The 2520-PA can be configured for use with load cells and pressure gauges, which require zero and span adjustment for readout in engineering units. Bridge excitation may be provided by the same 5 Vdc supply that powers the meter, or by an external, isolated 10 or 15 Vdc power supply. The 2520-PA can also be configured as a microvoltmeter using an internal reference, or in a ratiometric mode using an external reference.
Model 2520-PA is an economical 5-volt powered, high-resolution, high-accuracy 4 1/2 digit dc microvoltmeter in a compact 1/16 DIN case. The height of the panel cutout is 0.88" (22.2 mm), and the depth required behind the panel is only 2.83" (72 mm). Power consumption is 1 watt. |

SERIAL
BCD
Non-isolated, character-serial BCD output is standard to allow the 2520-PA to be interfaced to other instrumentation. Model 2520-PA provides a differential programmable preamplifier for use with low-level bridge circuits. Bridge excitation can be provided by the same 5 Vdc power supply that powers the meter. |
