The Instruments Division of Vishay Measurements
Group is the only organization of its kind devoted
exclusively to the design and manufacture of
high-quality strain-gage instrumentation. The result
of such specialization is an instrument line
engineered specifically for strain gages.

Strain Indicators
Basic instrumentation requirements call for
stability, accuracy and high resolution when making
measurements under static loading conditions, and
particularly where measurements are to be taken over
long periods of time. Under static loading
conditions, the first choice for a measuring
instrument will ideally incorporate a digital or
analog display, and, depending upon the degree of
sophistication, output to a printer, microprocessor
or computer.

Signal Conditioning
Amplifiers
When signals are produced by dynamically applied
loads at frequencies above 0.1 Hz, or are transients,
measuring instrumentation requires adequate frequency
response, and a wide amplifier gain range for output
to the appropriate recording or display device. Such
an instrument consists of an amplifier and signal
conditioner with a built-in or shared power supply.
Individual units are normally required for each
channel when simultaneous recording of multiple
channels is needed.
