The PTAF adapter connects customer-supplied strain gage-based force sensors to Series F test frames (F105, F305, F505, F505H) via Plug & Test® technology, saving configuration and calibration data internally. It requires a Mark-10 indicator with firmware version 2.2.8 or later and accommodates sensors with a full bridge configuration, 300 to 1000 ohms resistance, and 1 to 3 mV/V sensitivity. Connection is made via screw terminal blocks without soldering. Sensor capacity and resolution are configurable through included software using USB or RS-232 via the indicator.
Connect common strain gage-based load cells, force sensors, and torque sensors to Models M7I, M5I, and M3I indicators and Series F test frames with these user-configurable adapters. Sensor capacity and resolution may be configured via an included software utility, which includes a library of common force capacities from 0.12 to 750,000 lbF (0.5 N to 4,000 kN), and torque capacities from 10 ozFin to 40,000 lbFft (7 Ncm to 57,000 Nm). An identification number may be configured, which is displayed upon indicator power-up or the indicator’s Information screen. Through Plug & Test® technology, all configuration and calibration information is saved within the adapters. This flexibility allows for interchangeability between multiple sensors with any Mark-10 indicator or Series F test frame.
