Futek LPM200 panel-mount load cell
21 June, 2010 | Supplied by: Metromatics Pty Ltd
The Futek LPM200 panel-mount load cell offers miniature size, a robust flexure and low capacity of 10 g to 2.2 kg. A common challenge for low-capacity sensors is the damage the sensor can incur during installation. With the LPM200’s design, this challenge has been greatly minimised. The product features an overload protection of 1000% of rated output for the full range. By threading the flexure, the LPM200 can easily be installed for usage. The LPM200 uses a tough 28 AWG 4-conductor braided shield clear PVC cable.

What you really need to know about sample rate
07 June, 2010 by Roger W Lockhart, DATAQ Instruments | Supplied by: Adept Total Turnkey Solutions
By and large, discussions of sample rate are like watching paint dry. Do we really have to get into the details? After all, everyone knows that you only need to sample at twice the frequency of your signal of interest to get good results, right? If you answered “right!” to that last statement, perhaps you should read on.
