Model 703 & 733 Voltage Conditioners

Model 701 & 711 Strain Gage Conditioners

These instruments are full featured voltage conditioner/readouts; the Model 703 handles one and the Model 733 handles two inputs. Both provide fast, accurate data for each input. Twenty (20) useful processing functions and 26 real-time digital calculations make the Model 703/733 powerful production and performance test analyzers with easily configured characteristics.

A two line alphanumeric display publishes measured and computed data, units of measure and test status. Transducer calibration is automatic, requiring no manual adjustments.

System Control

(All I/O functions can be OR’d in any combination. The pattern function adds ANDing capabilities.)

Input Actions/channel: Logic inputs, outputs, and internal Matrix signals control following actions. Tare, Clear Tare, Hold, Clear Hold, Reset Max/Min, Clear Latched Limits, Check Limits, Do Max/Mins, Apply +CAL, Apply -CAL.
Output Events/channel: The following events drive Logic outputs and internal Matrix signals. HI Limit, NOT HI Limit, IN Limit, NOT IN Limit, LO Limit, NOT LO Limit, At Max, NOT At Max, At Min, NOT At Min.
Eight User-defined Patterns: Patterns of Logic inputs, outputs and Matrix signals drive Logic outputs and internal Matrix signals.

Limit Checking

Each channel has a HI and LO limit which may be latched or unlatched, absolute or signed, and with or without hysteresis. Select either Current, Max, Min, Spread or Held data for limit checking.

Limit violations on any or all channels can be set to trigger backlight flashing in any of the display view modes.

Notes:

1. The ratio expressed in decibels (dB), of Full Scale to noise spread. Measurements are made for a 1 minute interval using a 350Ω bridge.

2. Both excitation voltages can be used simultaneously with the following restrictions: 6 x (15V current) + (5V Current) ≤ 700 mA AND 15V current ≤ 100 mA AND 5V current ≤ 250 mA. The Model 733 has two pairs of these supplies.

3. Specification is subject to change without notice.
