1 Intended
use
The digital sensor electronic units AD104 belong to the family of AED components which digitally condition and
network as bus-capable signals of mechanical measured value transducers. The objective of these components
is the digitization and conditioning of the measuring signals directly at the transducer. The AD104 and the
transducer (load cell) form a unit and cannot be replaced separately (transducer calibration of the measurement
chain with SZA/SFA is necessary).
As transducers, calibrated load cells or force transducers ( adjusted in TCZ,TCS, and zero point) can be used.
The measuring amplifier boards AD104 have different interface connections which are produced in the factory
by corresponding assembly:
