The EL3361-0100 analog input terminal enables the direct connection of a resistor bridge (strain gauge) or a load cell using a 4-wire or 6-wire connection technique. It processes the ratio of the bridge voltage UBridge to the supply voltage USense and outputs the final load value as a process value based on the terminal settings. This enables precise recording of weights, torques, and vibrations with a sampling rate of 10,000 samples per second. The integrated bridge supply is generated from the 24 V of the power contacts.
