Strain Gauges

Strain gauges are commonly used to measure displacement, strain, force, and pressure. A strain gauge is a device that measures the strain on a material, typically a metal bar or rod. This is done by attaching a strain gauge to the material at a certain point and measuring the strain in that point. The strain gauge works by using the principle of resistance, whereby a conductive material changes its resistance in response to the strain applied to it.

MMF314326 Application Field and Working Principle

The MMF314326 strain gauge is specifically designed for use in high temperature applications. It is ideal for measuring strain in environments where temperatures range from -55°C to +200°C. The Gauge is constructed from a material called Manganin, which is known for its resistance to corrosion. This makes the MMF314326 an excellent choice for applications where corrosion could be a problem.

Working Principle: The MMF314326 strain gauge works based on the principle of resistance. When there is a strain applied to the gauge, the atoms of the Manganin material move relative to each other, changing the spacing between them. This in turn alters the electrical resistance of the material. As a result, when a strain is applied to the gauge, the electrical resistance of the material changes, thus allowing for the measurement of the amount of strain applied.

The MMF314326 strain gauge is designed for use in both static and dynamic measurements. Furthermore, it is also designed to be a low-cost solution for measuring strain in a wide range of high-temperature applications. The gauge is easy to install, providing a reliable and accurate measure of strain in a variety of different conditions.

Conclusion

The MMF314326 strain gauge is an excellent choice for applications where high temperature measurements are needed. The Gauge is constructed from an extremely durable and corrosion-resistant material, making it ideal for a variety of different conditions. Its low cost and easy installation make it an attractive choice for many applications. The strain gauge works based on the principle of the resistance, whereby a conductive material changes its resistance in response to the strain applied to it.
