1.0 Introduction
The MAGPOWR Model TSA is a Tension Sensor Amplifier. The TSA supplies 10 vdc or
5 vdc excitation for both full bridge or half bridge tension sensors. The signals from the tension
sensors are added together and amplified to produce a 0 to 10 vdc or a
4 to 20 madc output.
2.0 Mounting
The TSA is intended for installation on a vertical panel with a DIN 35 rail, with the wiring
terminals facing down. Figure 1 shows the enclosure dimensions.

3.0 Setup
When Magpowr, or other 21 mv tension sensors are used, no setup is necessary. If 500 mv tension
sensors are used, then JP1 and JP2 must be cut (See figure 2). The enclosure may be opened by
inserting a flat blade screwdriver under one of the retaining tabs in the base and lifting the cover
(See figure 3).
