The 1-channel telemetry system T1 is ideal for wireless transmission of strain gauge signals from rotating shafts. The transmitter electronics allow the direct connection of strain gauges in full- and half-bridge mode. The bridge supply is fixed 4 Volt DC and the gain can be freely selected in 4 levels. The transmitter electronics (encoder) is only 35 mm wide, 18 mm long and 12 mm deep and weighs only 13 grams.
Wireless transmission and power supply
The power supply to the transmitter side and the digital data transmission to the receiver operate inductively. The T1 encoder generates a digital signal by means of pulsecode modulation (PCM), which is transmitted to the receiver head via an induction winding around the shaft. From there, the signal is sent via cable to the receiver unit. The maximum distance between the transmitter coil and the receiver/power supply head is up to 35 mm.
