Description

WGC-140A, 4-Channels Instrumentation Amplifier

The WGC-140A is a high-speed processing at 2 ms, a compact 4 channel Instrumentation Amplifier, which can calculate the physical quantities of load cells, etc.

It is suitable for measurement and control of the load applied to each column of press and the total load or for tension control by measurement of load balance and total load in various fields.
