Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great performance Precise. We will keep using this sensor from Omega.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from I only buy these when I run out of others. These gages work fine once I get them installed. But the heavy wire splices near the gage complicates installation. The hook up end is just a tiny bit of bare wire - my preferred brand always makes long tinned ends which can be put directly around a screw terminal.

Do the packs come with adhesive?

Asked by: JIMMY321354
The adhesives do not come with the strain gages. They have to be ordered separately There are 3 types of adhesives available. SG496 is a one part methyl-based cyano-acrylate adhesive. SG401 is a one part ethyl-base cyano-acrylate adhesive. The TT300 adhesive kit is a 2 part epoxy. This kit also includes the one bottle each of acetone, Acid Primer, Neutralizer & Resin Solvent.

Whats the difference between the 2-wire and 3-wire configuration? What signal does each wire carry?

Asked by: KF978
Hi, typically 3-wire strain gauges are used for lead wire temperature compensation. If the strain gauge is a 2-wire system, strain output from the bridge is affected by the temperature effect of the lead wire. To avoid such adverse effect, the 3-wire system is adopted. If 3 lead wires are connected to a strain gage, a half lead wire resistance is applied to the adjacent side of a bridge to compensate for the temperature effect of lead wires in bridge output. The temperature effect of the lead wires connected to a measuring instrument outside of the bridge is ignored because the input impedance of the measuring instrument is high.

How to connect wires of this SG to a 3-wire input system with EXC, AI, and RC inputs, such as NI-9236?

Asked by: tackoo
Tackoo, thank you for contacting Omega Engineering. Please see page 10 of the NI9236 Manual, the 2 lead wires from the strain gauge will connect to EXC and RC, then you will have to add an external jumper across AI and RC. It might be better to contact NI if you have more wiring questions.

Goal is tank level indication. Bench test: KFH-03-120-C1-11L1M2R on desk leg. Steel, square tubing, and plated. Sensors: axial position, wired full bridge. PLC input +/- 80mVDC. Excitation 1.5VDC. Bonded w/ Krazy glue. How can I resolution get it better?

My application will be running at 350°F. The max temperature is listed as 320°F. Is there enough tolerance in the temperature rating of the grid/assembly, that I could use these grids for my application.

Asked by: KayB
Dear KayB we do not recommend using the strain gauges outside the operating range of : -10 to 155 (-14 to 320) You will see erroneous readings due to thermal effects. Please see HBM family strain gauges for higher temperatures: https://www.omega.co.uk/pptst/HBM-M-SERIES.html Kindly email pressure@omega,com if you have more questions

Does each linear pre-wired strain gauge contain a full Wheatstone bridge or would I have to purchase 4 to create one myself?

Asked by: Carlos12345
The KFH is a linear, single grid strain gauge. It is not a full Wheatstone bridge. Our Tech Support has emailed you a diagram of what complete Wheatstone bridge likes. Please contact our Tech Support if you have any further questions. Thank you.

Can these gauges be reused after being removed from a specimen?

Asked by: KotaAubs
Thank you for your question? Most strain gauges will not work once they have been removed from a glued surface. However you can try and have had some customers succeed in doing it onetime.
