PTA PTA/PTAF Plug & Test Load Cell Adapter

PTA, The PTA adapter interfaces with many strain gage-based sensors and Mark-10 indicators or Series F test frame

PTA, PTA Bottom can be opened for sensor connection

PTA, Sensor leads can be connected to a screw terminal block.

PTA, PCB and screw terminal block with clear label for each connection

PTA, PTAF adapter for use on Model F105/F305/F505 test frames

PTA, Model PTAF mounting a third-party S-beam load cell to a Model F305-IMT test frame.

PTA, Model PTAF, in combination with an AC1083 adapter, mounting a third-party S-beam load cell to a Model F1505-IMT test frame

PTA, Model PTAF requires a Mark-10 indicator to configure a third-party sensor, as shown here. AC1083 adapter between the PTAF and indicator is required.

PTA PTA/PTAF Plug & Test Load Cell Adapter

Plug & Test® technology is used with the Mark-10 Series-3I, 5I, 7I Indicators and Series-F Test frames.
To be able to connect user supplied strain gauge load and/or torque cells the PTA/PTAF adapter was developed..

Plug & Test® technology saves all configuration and calibration information within the adapters PCB. This flexibility allows for interchangeability between multiple sensors with any Mark-10 Series F test frame.

The PTA adapter is used with Series-#I Indicators and model F755 and F1505 test frames

The PTAF adapter is used connect to model F105, F305, F505 and F505H test frames and can be used on model F755 and F1505 test frames when an AC1083 adapter is used.

Sensor capacity and resolution may be configured via an included software utility, which includes a library of common force capacities from 0.5 N to 4,000 kN, and torque capacities from 7 Ncm to 57.000 Nm.
When an identification number is configured, it is displayed upon hardware power-up or the test stands display.
