  • Page 4: Introduction / Overview

    The 9325 (Handheld Display) for strain bridge sensors, is a microprocessor based portable display instrument. It is designed to interface with any full bridge sensor that has an output sensitivity of up to 480mV/V. Bridge resistances from 85 ohms upwards can be used with the 9325.
  • Page 5: Advanced Flexible Multi-Point Calibration

    So, the new 9325 now supports settings for both decimal point position on a per unit basis and resolution on a per calibration range basis.
