When strain gauges are subject to alternating loads at increased load levels, they can weaken and fail early. M Series foil strain gauges, manufactured by ADE Technologies and available in Canada through Durham Instruments, are specially designed to resist alternating loads at increased strain levels and high temperatures up to 300 degrees C (572 degrees F).
The lineup
M Series foil strain gauges feature measuring grids made of a special nickel-chromium alloy. They are available with various geometries, measuring grid lengths, and temperature response matching. The selection includes:
Grid length options
These strain gauge types are available in various lengths — 1.5, three and six millimetres. Users should select 1.5-millimetre lengths in applications where space is a constraint or when highly selective measurement results are required. Three-millimetre lengths are most appropriate for inhomogeneous materials like concrete or wood, while six-millimetre models are ideal for inhomogeneous materials where space is not a requirement. In general, measuring grid lengths of three to six millimetres generate a better result.
