Transbridge
(TBM4M) is a four-channel analogue transducer manifold,
specifically designed to amplify output voltage signals
from pressure, force, displacement, and temperature
transducers as well as a wide variety of other signal
sources. Analogue output signals available from each channel
can be recorded on magnetic tape, displayed on an
oscilloscope or applied to the input of a multichannel
data acquisition for digital signal processing in a
computer.
Each channel contains a regulated 10-volt power supply (+5
and -5 volts with respect to signal ground) to provide DC
power to transducers, and a precision differential
amplifier with selectable voltage amplification and
variable position adjustment control.
Transducers can be connected to Transbridge via any of the
8-pin connectors on the front panel. Four spare 8-pin DIN
plugs are provided with each instrument to allow you to
rewire cables of other manufacturers’ transducers and
connect them to Transbridge. Each Transbridge channel may
be used in either Full Bridge or the Half Bridge mode
independently. For transducer types other than resistive
bridges, such as active transistor circuits, magnetic,
photocell or piezoelectric devices, the instrument’s
differential amplifiers may still be used effectively for
signal amplification in differential (Full Bridge) and
single-ended (Half bridge) modes.
