The strain gauge sensor GE1029 measure the surface-strain directly at the mounting loca- tion in the same quality as bonded strain gages. The press-on technology, developed by Sensormate AG, presses the strain gauges under the stainless protective film so strongly against the surface to be measured that frictional contact occurs.
Assembly These sensors are precision instruments. The devices must be handled with the appropriate care. These instructions must be read and understood by every user. Preparation • Oil and other surface impurities as well as paint must be removed from the place of installation.

GE1029 Place the sensor around the object to be measured and screw it on carefully. Do not tighten with final torque yet! Cables must not be jammed. Slightly loosen the fixing so that the individual measuring modules can rest perfectly on the circumference of the measuring object.
To prevent damage to the film, it should always be checked before using the sensor. Remove any impurities immediately. Maintenance The sensor GE1029 should be checked every 12 months. For maintenance the sensor must be sent to Sensormate AG. 11 / 24...

The handling is very user-friendly. Application: The device DU1D is used in conjunction with tie bar strain-sensors of the Sensormate AG for the control of the clamping force on presses, injection-moulding and die-casting machines. The ALARM relay allows to stop the machine in case of overload. Ideal to retrofit on existing machines.

DU1D Alarm setting • Press and hold the „ALARM“ button and simultaneously set the alarm value with the „UP/DOWN“ buttons. Then release the „Alarm“ button. -> the alarm is activated. An alarm value = „0“ causes the alarm to be deactivated. •...
Automatic reset The DU1D monitor is set to the maximum value of 1000µε at the factory. From a strain signal of 30με (cycle start value), the monitor displays values. As soon as the current value falls below 5% of the maximum value measured in the current cycle, the DU1D monitor carries out a reset (minimum 500ms).
