The 5M78 Conditioner is a stable, high-accuracy single-channel strain gage conditioner of phase-sensitive carrier-amplifier design. The 5M78 delivers filtered analog output of ±5 Vdc, ±10 Vdc, 4-20 mA or 4-12-20 mA. The 5M78’s 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.
