Model 3544 Circumferential Extensometers

Product catalog summary
Features:
  • Full bridge, 350 ohm strain gaged design compatible with most test systems.
  • Adjustable for various specimen sizes by adding or removing chain links.
  • Rugged dual flexure design for enhanced strength and performance.
  • Includes a high-quality foam-lined case.
  • Self-supporting on the specimen and can be used with Model 3542RA axial extensometers.
  • Available versions for use in tri-axial confining pressure cells at high pressures and temperatures.
Specifications:
  • Excitation: 5 to 10 VDC recommended, 12 VDC or VAC max.
  • Output: 2 to 4 mV/V nominal, depending on model.
  • Linearity: 0.25% to 0.30% of full scale measuring range, depending on model.
  • Temperature Range: Standard (-ST) is -40 °C to +100 °C (-40 °F to 210 °F).
  • Cable: Integral, ultra-flexible cable, 8 ft (2.5 m) standard.
Options:
