Introduction Product Description The DIN Mounting Rail Measuring Amplifier GM 40 amplifies signals of strain gauge sensors to stand- ard output signals. The slim housing shape allows space-saving installation in control cabinets on standard DIN mounting rails. The analog outputs of ±5V and ±10V enable direct signal processing with a PLC.

Left Stop: Right Stop: Cutoff Frequency = 1kHz Cutoff Frequency = 10Hz The use of the filter is appropriate if interferences are on the measuring signal.
400Ω The exact device configuration is shown on the front side of the GM 40. If a GM 40 is ordered in con- nection with a sensor, it will be adjusted to the sensor; only the zero point must be corrected.

At a low filter effect, fast measurements are possible, but interferences must be reduced by other appropriate measures such as grounding, cable shielding etc.
