THE 5M70 DIN CONDITIONER IS A LOW COST UNIT FOR DC BASED – FULL BRIDGE STRAIN-GAGES FROM 0.5 TO 10 mV/V and delivers a filtered analog output of ±5 Vdc, ±10 Vdc or 4-20 mA; switch selectable by the user. Advanced analog design directly addresses the problem of measurement inaccuracy in industrial environments of high electromechanical noise. Exceptional signal stability and accuracy over a remarkably wide range of sensor inputs are achieved through:

remotely sensed excitation, user-selectable
chopper-stabilized low-drift amplification
configurable low-pass active filtering
“shunt” switch-based calibration
wide range Zero & Span adjustments
For steady indication and smooth, dependable control action, the 5M70 can provide a true average value of the measured variable, even in the face of substantial dynamic content. Housed in a durable-flame retardant enclosure, the 5M70 is ideal for industrial-process applications. The analog output and gain settings are easily configured through the use of a simple coarse rotary switch and precision range potentiometer which results in a highly repeatable, stable and accurate measurement.

Powerful low-pass active filtering, selectable by the user, the 5M70 low pass filter removes unwanted high-frequency measurement-signal components and the elimination of aliasing errors, if the module’s output is subsequently digitized.
Selectable excitation of 2.5 or 5.0 Vdc bridge voltage which is slaved to an extremely stable reference voltage.
DIN mount construction which allows the user easy access to the screw terminal connections for power, analog output, shunt and sensor signals.
Wide Zero & Span, through the use of rotary switches & potentiometers, the 5M70 will accommodate 100% zero authority and a wide range of full bridge DC strain gage sensors, foil or semiconductor type with bridge resistance from 120 to 10 k Ohm.
Wide Input Power range from 11 to 28 Vdc, the 5M70 is well suited for industrial, process and mobile environments
