RDP Electronics can offer a combination of standard products to provide a configurable, cost-effective system for plotting load versus displacement.
Typical applications include materials testing, lifting platforms and vehicle testing.
The RDP system for plotting load versus displacement
By using two RDP E725 signal-conditioning display units, data outputs from a load cell and from a displacement transducer such as an LVDT can be combined to present a graphical display of stress over strain on a standard PC or laptop.
The RS232 output of the E725 connects to a PC used in conjunction with Microsoft Excel-compatible free software.
Designed for use with a range of transducers, including LVDT, strain-gauge and internal inline types, the E725 signal-conditioner and display unit is suitable for applications in manufacturing, process industries, testing and research.
The E725 incorporates signal conditioning for transducers and offers a clear five-digit display, with fast peak and trough detection and limit trips shown by indicator lights, and options such as relay outputs.

Analogue signal conditioning suits large projects
For projects calling for hundreds of strain-gauge transducer channels, RDP claims that analogue signal conditioning can be more resilient to electrical-supply fluctuations than digital devices. -
LVDTs can be modified for higher-temperature use
RDP Electronics is advising that many of its standard LVDTs can now be factory modified for higher temperature operation than normal. -
RDP devises test regime for position transducers
RDP Electronics has developed a rigorous testing process to meet the position measurement challenges faced by transducers. -
RDP transducers measure ultra-high pressure
RDP Electronics is offering transducers for the measurement of ultra-high pressures at elevated temperature found in autoclaves, for example, or for burst pressure measurement. -
Displacement measurement near corrosive fluids
RDP Electronics has developed a range of LVDTs suitable for use in corrosive environments.
